H&R versus Eibach springs
I have been think about getting springs and new isolators for my 87. I have heard several people say the H&R springs have a better ride quality. I am looking for a progressive rate spring that will handle well and not kill my ride qaulity any more than it already is. I am more concerned about how well it handles, rather than how far it will slam the car down to the ground. This is my current dd and I live it Ga with alot of curvey roads.I want to get some suggestions on what I should get and if anyone knows of the best place to purchase them please let me know.

Eibach Pro-Kits!!
I have them and they handle AWESOME!! I could not believe the difference in the ride after I installed them....
As far as ride height, the Pro-Kits did not make too much of a difference from my 15-year old sagging springs.....but WHOA did it stiffen everything up
Put it this way, when I used to get in the car, the whole thing would drop and bounce.....Now, I cannot get it to bounce unless I jump on it

RE: H&R versus Eibach springs
I think it is awesome......not too stiff.....and corners/brakes nice
If I had to get another set, I would buy them again....but then again, I never had any expereince with any other springs.....so keep that in mind when listening to me
BTW, I never get any rubbing or bottoming out either......NEVER!

H&R Sport Spring.
A nice firm ride (not kidney jarring),stays flat inhard cornering andit feelsas if you're sucked down to the road rather than riding on the road.
Oh yeah: and theylowered my car 1"
