I have Eibachs on my 2000 max SE. I have not changed the stock shocks. The ride is stiffer than stock, but not harsh. Anytime you lower a car, the ride will be stiffer.

the Eibachs are one of the stiffest springs available...if you want softer ride, go for the H&Rs..

well, your shocks are going to blow eventually...so i suggest saving little bit more money and get the aftermarket shocks(tokicos or Konis-if you can afford them)...this will save you in installation charges..you'll end up paying twice for the same work.

I just got my Eibach Springs installed about two weeks ago, and the difference is huge. I still have the stock shocks, and the installation only cost me $60!!! The ride is a little stiffer, but nothing like i thought it would be. My wife didn't even notice a difference in the ride, except that I had virtually no body roll in turns. The only thing that I would complain about is that I wish my Car was lower, can barely tell that the car dropped 1.3"
