thats the beauty of having adjustable, you can match them up yourself, you know they are too soft if you bounce about too much are to hard if you have no movement, or you can set it the way you like, all upto you at the end of the day. All you can do is read up and then bit the bullet and get a set that hopefully you'll like. good luck

I was thinking about a strut tower brace too, and notice you both have them. Most of the ones I see do not work with 98-02 V6's; the ones that will fit are more expensive. Are there any for my car in the $60-$80 range? The cheapest I could find was $99.95 on the WS6 store.

If you are going to drop, and you like handling, look into Strano's springs:
Strano Performance Parts - Part Details

Seems to be a recurring theme of posts I've read on Eibachs sagging over time...

Give Strano a call, tell him your goals and see his recommendations.

The other thing is Bilsteins will NOT last with lowering springs, they may work better with the SLP matched combo set, but other combinations will hasten their life. Koni SAs are your best bet for lowering springs for better control.

Great, thanks. I assume that comes with everything I need to install?

I did email Strano a while back, but he never responded...

SLP Eibach Springs & Bilstein Shocks from Stranos Installed - LS2 Forums

I just found this review with several satisfied customers. All the users describe exactly what I am looking for. And Strano seems to speak very well of them too.
