I installed mine without. My car rides great. I did get an alighnment afterward because the previous installer of the Eibachs was a moron and intalled them with the tail not in the socket. I went to remove my ISO's and found what they had done. They put them in wrong AND had it alighned with the car sitting an inch higher. (basically stock hight) I reinstalled them correctly and took out the ISO's. Rides like a dream. With a really bad road and my 275's in the front I can get irritated from time to time but normal driving it still feels great.

From experience: Eibach springs ride like crap.. they seem to bottom out all the time..
I now have BBK and am very satisfied.. I'm not sure who actually makes the springs for BBK but they are great on my car.. It sits about the same once I took the rubber spring "isolators" off the front..
if you don't have the front end aligned after any lowering spring instal you'll begin to wear the inside of the front tires out..

It may be just my bad luck but I swear I have a terrible opinion of them.. They do sit the best though!

Yeah about another 1/2...
You can just take the front out if you want to... You can do whatever you want to with them really.

RE: eibach pro kit.
I didnt read through all of the posts, but I put Sportlines on my car with stock shocks and no c/c plates. The alignment shop was able to get the alignment nailed, and I notice very little bumpsteer. The ride is pretty harsh when hitting bumps though so shocks, c/c plates, new balljoints, and a bumpsteer kit are in store after christmas. Hold out until you have everything you need.
