B&G or Eibach?????

I am interested in the b&g springs with the 1.4" drop, i had the eibach pro kit on my 93 z28 and thought it rode a little stiff but i had sensa trac struts which i found out later that you dont want on a lowered car because of the valving. Which springs have the best ride quality because both are progressive rate springs? any input is appreciated

Re: B&G or Eibach?????

I have the B+G's. They are stiff. Stiffer than the Eibiotch, but also shouldn't settle like the po-kit. I'll probably step up to Konis next to handle them better, if I don't go ahead and go coil over.

I'd equate them with H&Rs or DMS front and Hypercoil rear as far as spring rate.

In all honesty, the rear seems to be a little stiff. Not horrible, but could be better.

I would like to go with the sportline kit but with the long tubes and a 3" y pipe i think they will be too low.
