I have the prodrives on stock struts and love them, they have the most even drop in my opinion...I have never tried the eibach springs, so I cannot comment on them.

+1....I also have eibach pro kit springs on my car. Ride quality isn't harsh and is a great improvement over stock. Wheel gap is also even and not extremely low in the front so there is room for a lip if you are going that route in the future.

in my opinion, the eibach springs still leave a slightly raised front end vs the back end of the car. the prodrives have the better looking drop where the front is very even if not very slightly lower than the rear end.

Eibachs on stock struts, they are slightly lower on the back than the front, big ass draggin when I have 5 ppl in the car. I would've prefered it if it sits lower on the front.
