Smile Eibach Sportline VS H&B VS Tein Springs

Ok I just bought me a set of 17" 5zigen pro racers in bronze on my ASM SI. No pictures yet until I get some springs.

So my question to you guys is which springs (Sportline, H&R, Tein) do you guys prefer with performance, ride quality, looks, and overall best quality? The Sportline and the H&R springs cost exactly the same but the sportlines have 1.5" drop and the H&R drops at 2". The Tein springs are the cheapest of the 3 and drop at 1.5" too. So, price is no real issue but if I can save a buck or two why not right??

Reviews would be greatly appreciated. Thanks everyone

sportline drop is lower than tein s. I would recommend Eibach.

Hey first post. I've had my Sportlines for a few months now and can't say anything bad about them. Drop is decent, ride is comfy, and body lean is greatly reduced. Also, don't you mean H&R?

Wow. That's a pretty big gap. Are you using the stock all-season tires?

Nice wheels, btw

hmm... the 17's look a lil bit on the smaller side. only cause the spokes fall short of the end of the wheel the 18s look great its just the ride and performance on 17s are a lot better!

pic of my asm si on eibach pro kits and 18x7.5 proracers in hyperblack (225/40/18 tires)
