Default lowering springs

i want to lower my 4.6 about 1.5 inches in the back and 1.75-2.0 in the front and im having trouble choosing springs. i see that eibach springs run a little over 200$ for these cars but while doing my research i found springs for about 100$.. here is the link

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/4-New...item3cb76653b3

if anyone here has these, please give me some feedback on how they run and handle on our cars.

I'm not sure about those springs, but i just bought H&R Super Sports, because i've heard more great things about them than any of the others. For the coupe they provide a 1.75" drop in front, and 1.6" in the rear. Which is perfect to me...not slammed but nice and low with a slight rake.

I think it was just under $240 with the forum discount. I got them from American Muscle.

I haven't heard of the springs on eBay. Be careful buying cheap on eBay usually lower quality materials.. Also keep in mind you get what you pay for

My brother has some of those dropzone springs on his 03 mach 1 and I wouldnt recommend them. His car is a really bumpy ride. I have the Eibach sportlines and they are much smoother.
