Eibach 2" Sportline springs...what shocks do I need

Guys I recently purchased a set of Eibach sportline springs for my 94 camaro z28. They are supposed to lower my car roughly 2," but I need to get some ideas on some struts/shocks. I dont know that much about suspension systems...so I guess I'm trying to get some info here. Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Bill

match them properly. if money isn't a concern the bilstein sports will work nicely.

The ride will be rough no matter what shock you run IMO.

The springs are too soft for their height (or lack there of as the case may be.)

Bilsteins aren't made for higher spring rates than stock or lower ride heights. You either need revalves or Koni to do it right, but the springs will still be prone to riding the bump stops. Sell them and get better springs.

the sports are valved for the lower height.. hd's are better suited for the taller factory or pro-kit height. the springs are fine if you pick the right components... there's always better options no matter what.
