i r3ecently installed them on my 97 eclipse and i love them. the ride definently stiffened up and i dun feel like im bouncing around whenever i hit a bump. the ride is just a little rougher than stock but hardly noticeable compared to the performance gains. i also dun scrape as much as i thought i would!i recommend without hesitation

EclipseGS1997, did you pic up the pro-kits? I was wondering if you like them. My brother has neuspeed springs with koni yellows and they are way to hard for me. also, do you have pictures?

What do you guys think of the Eibach Pro kits compared to H&R mated to KYB AGX's?

I've got Eibach Pro Kits mated with the KYB AGX's. I can't speak for anything other than that because I went from my stockers to the Eibachs and KYB's. I'm not sure if you'd consider it an enjoyable ride, but as far as performance it rocks. If I were to do it again, I would probably get the custom Konis that RRE sells. I just don't like the limited suspension travel. The adjustability on the KYBS is nice if you do some SCCA racing, but for around town you might want to look for something with more travel. The Eibachs are pretty nice, not too low like the Pro-Kits. Really helps with the car nosing up during acceleration. One other note my first day driving with the KYBS and Eibachs , I hit a pothole on the highway on ramp and put my drivers side strut through my CV boot. The spot weld on the tab holding the strut in place in the pickle fork, ripped completely off, sending the strut down into my CV boot. I got a replacement under the KYB warranty but I think the limited travel contributed to this.
