you must not have searched! its okay tho....ill go ahead and help u out! Im not lowered yet but after hours and hours of getting peoples opinion and searching through the many thousands of posts in this forum i would get the eibach sportlines, they are ep specific and will be better for stock shocks unlike the TEIN which were my Main combating choice. The ride between most of the springs is gonna be about the same if not a little stiffer than stock. And for lowering i believe eibach provide the best drivability GUARENTEED! the tein and progress drop a little lower. So all in all, i AM getting the sportlines. btw shocks arent out for the ep yet

I have Progress Springs now and if you want to have them not clunk, when you order them make sure to get extra coil wrap (plastic to cover where the springs hit themselves and rest) right away or else you can call the company to get some. Also, after taking my rear passenger side spring off 4 times and remounting it, it is going back to Progress and a new one sent to me because it was cut 1/2 inch too short during manufactoring so it had booty sag going on in the back right. They are a great drop and ride but make sure you check them out and measure before you put them on.:o

Probably not but I've seen too many cars in the past with Eibach's and the ass starts to sag after about 8 months.

I got my progress springs shipped from showstoppers for 140, pretty tite deal IMO. The drop is pretty aggressive, and the ride is a little harsher, but I plan on getting shocks as soon as they come out so it's all good.

Tein or Progress are two really good choices. I don't think you can make a wrong decision!

I just check the Showstoppers site and there is no option for that spring
