Go with the Eibachs. I had SS/SC springs on and it didn't do much for the ride height. If you are just looking for better handling though they are a nice cheap alternative.

This was how the car used to look on the SS/SC springs.

I have the SS Sc springs. When we install the nitrous you can check em out. They dropped the car a little bit. Like an inch or so, but it does look better with them

cool, i want to lower the ride a little but i do enjoy being able to clear these chi-town potholes. and as for handling i can hold my own as is. the drop is more for asthetic appeal then anything.
