Eibach springs are very stiff. In my opinion stiffer then the Nospeeds by
far. I was very un-impressed with Eibach when we put some on a buddys
cabrio. YMMV

I had poly bumpstops... for about 2 weeks. You really know about it when you
bottom the suspension with those! I had to pull over because I was sure
something must have broken.

I'm using Koni top-adjustables all round with H&R springs - I've heard the
Eibachs are much stiffer & from what I understand they are better suited to
smooth conditions. Of course, I could be wrong, it's been known before...
