I'm planning on going with eibach sportline springs.

I'm wondering what kind of shocks i should get, for the best handling/driving/launching or whatever, if i can get some opinions it will just help me pick.
Thanks guys

 

launching with lowering springs is not a very easy thing. first off the suspension geometry is so off kilter that you'll likely get rediculous wheel hop. this could be fixed (to a degree) by installing relocation brackets.

and stiffer springs reduce front/back weight transfer which makes traction harder to get.

but if you are really planning on sportlines i would contact Sam Strano and get some revalved bilsteins. they are specifically set up for lower springs and i've heard many good things about his products.

can't think of the link off the top of my head...try a search

just get a set of hal's. they are set up for lowered cars, and you have control over the height of the front. i love mine, smooth ride if i want, just add stiffness while im at the track, and then back to the soft ride for the way home.

 

Hals were developed as drag shocks, not ride quality/handling shocks.

Sportlines are very low and will hinder launching ability. I would suggest Koni SA shocks or Strano-vavled Bilsteins.
