Sorry, but another springs question

Just wondering if people that have actually experienced both Eibach and Maxspeeds could comment on their comparability; ie, are the Eibachs really that much more stiff tham the Maxspeeds. As usual, I really appreciate your help, thanks guys. Oh, just for the record, I love the way that the Teins look, but I don't think I want that stiff of a ride.

If you don't want a stiff ride go with the Maxspeeds.

They will give you a decent drop and still give you a smooth ride.

The spring rate on the Eibachs are actually higher then teins. Ive driven a car with Eibachs w/1 coil cut from the front and GR2's and the ride is excellent and pretty damn low. It defenetly rode better them mine with Toks and Teins but it might be the struts Whatever you do get struts when you drop it.
