Default Tein S Tech or Eibach Pro kit

I want to upgrade my suspension but I don't want to go to low. Already scraping some speadbumps. I rode in a friend Z with Eibach Pro kit w/ Koni yellows and I was sold. But I heard Tein S techs don't drop a full inch. Are they just as good. Any suggestions for around the same price?

I've got Eibachs and love them. The S-Techs won't drop as much. Also check out Hotchkis.

Will the S Techs and Hotchkis feel and perform the same?

Can't say for sure. Suggest you do a search on each as there are varying reviews. Linear vs. progressive springs do differ in function.

Default installed hotchkis

If you are looking for good handling with a slight drop (9/16 front & 3/4 rear) go with hotchkis, handling seemed to improve drastically, ride feels like stock and it was easy to get alligned with no camber rods required.
