Default Eibach vs HKS

eibach prokit $200

hks $330

both are 1.2 inch drop

both progressive spring.

You think the HKS has any advantage over the eibach?

330 seems a little steep for hks's. I beleive eibach are the better buy. But eibach and hks are the same company (or same owner), something silly like that. Or so i've heard.

I've got eibach and a buddy of mine's got hks on his 'lude. Both feel about the same. Good cornering etc etc. But if i were to do it again, i'd get the whole eibach pro-kit with struts for $500. smile.gif

just my 2c

Eibach is German. HKS is Japanese. They are NOT the same company.

I thought it was H&R that was somehow related to Eibach.
I believe both are German, at least.

Speaking of H&R, my H&Rs are waiting for me at home!

i've seen the hks kit for much less than $330. however, i'm kinda stumped as to who to go with. i mean, they're both very respectable companies, but eibach does just suspensions. hmm...
