You won't hear about H&Rs saggingor giving an uneven drop as much as Eibach, but Eibachs has a softer ride....

pretty much. I would never really recommend eibachs as they have such a wide range of results with just 1 product.

One of my buddies has an '02 GT and he put the H&Rs on it.About a monthlater he swapped them out for the Pro Kit. He said the H&Rs were too stiff. Then again there is 800 thousand speed bumps in the neighborhoods in northern Delaware.

i had pro kit on my gt, then i put the pro kit on the mach and i just swaped out the prokit for the H & R's and i couldnt be happier. i think the h and rs ride quality is 1000000x better than stock and the eibachs. but everyone has their own prefrance. my buddy has eibachs on his cobra and took my mach for a ride with the h and rs and he wants to swap them out on his car if they make a kit for the irs.

Everyone complains about H&R's ride quality when they are comparing it to eibachs. There is a reason why H&R's feel stiffer, because structurally it is stronger, and it lowers the car more so it puts more stress on the stock shocks/struts. H&R's + a good set of shocks/struts and the ride is much more firmer and the car will feel a lot more responsive than the similar setup with eibachs.
