RU4REAL's car look hot

Jeff(ru4real) and me lowered his car last night and it looks hot. it took a little over 4 hours mostly because the tanks on my compressor are too small. it takes so long to compress springs. But it all went smooth so it didn't seem like that long. He has FRANKENCAR MODIFIED AGX's he just got a set for like 350 shipped and i modified them to make them fit his car. took about an hour to do that but he dropped them off monday so they were ready. the progress springs are the same ones i have and he also likes the way they ride and look. took bad mattsy has the digicam or i would have taken pics.

How do the springs work? Are they stiff or bouncy. I dont want the Eibachs just because they are too bouncy for me. I want the stiffest ones out there if I can.. anyone have an idea which?

I've heard the H&R's have pretty good ride quality. But your post brings up a good point. Besides how stiff/handling the springs have, how bouncy are they? (Eibach ProKits vs. H&R Sports)

So H&R's are sort of like bmw suspension setups? Nice ride and good handling? Which would handle better; Eibachs or H&Rs?
