Default Tein S tech vs Eibach sportsline

so..I know I recently posted about springs, however I looked into Tein springs and they are wayyy cheaper than eibach. I know the drop on them are a bit different, but my main question is, for the price. which spring handles better? I am still fairly new to the spring world and I want to see how much of a drop you got and if it handles a lot better than stock.

Are you running OEM shocks? If you are just driving on the street go with whichever one gives you the drop you are looking for. Chances are you will not notice either handles better than the other.

Looks like springs rates are: 384/421 progressive for the Eibach ; 390/400 with the front being progressive and the rear linear on the s techs.

I am running OEM shocks, cant afford koni yellows or D-specs. I have heard a lot that the OEM shocks still run good with the sportsline

I think for regular street use they'll be pretty close.
