I've been running the Eibach Sportlines for over a year now. I like them. They are very firm, but the handling is good.
If I get a chance I'll post a pic of the stance.

They look like progressive springs. Do they have some give before they stiffen up? I was also interested in these, but because I thought they were progressive.

They are a progressive spring, so there is some give before they get to stiff but not much. They lower the car almost 2" so that doesn't leave a lot of room for soft travel. On a fairly smooth road they are great. On the not so smooth, potholed Utah roads they get a little rough sometimes.

Ya, some of it could be the stock shocks and struts.

I've always had good luck with the prokit springs. This is the third car I've had them on now.
