Installed Eibachs/Illuminas HUGE difference

Hey all!
Yesterday Tilley installed my eibach springs and tokico illuminas.
I put the settings on 3 for the struts. I love the way the car rides now much better than stock. Not harsh at all. Its very close to stock however, no more body roll around turns. I can take turns now much faster. I imagine my tires are gonna last alot less now though. Cuz I can't post pics now here I posted them in the member rides section if you'd like to see them.

I had the Eibachs and Illuminas and it was ok. I now have Tein H-Techs with the Illuminas and it even better than the the Eibachs setup.

$2 a minute. A bit much no?

Why Eibach? the car now looks "normal" height compared to other stock cars.
