ground control coil over kit. $400.

or go with ST springs if you don't want to spend that much. around $200 or so.

Anyone know of a website with spring rates on it? I saw one somewhere, but I don't know where. Also, who prefers linear rate and who prefers progressive rate springs?

It's all about compromise. the Eibach Pro kits that i have are awesome performers, they just deliver a harsh ride on rough road surfaces. From what i have heard the ST's are a great overall performer, and low cost. Also the Racing Beat springs are good too. I think I would say to my liking they would be the best to go with (RB). I wish i would have known that before i bought the Eibachs. They never have let me down, though. My *** just vibrates a little after a long drive. 4hrs +
