Standard shocks and Eibachs is a bit of a compromise and the ride will suffer \:\(

If you can afford it, go for the Bilstein dampers with the springs.

Ok then, I'd recommend standard springs on standard shocks unless you live in an area with nice roads.

I have lowered my Coupe with 40mm Novitec springs on standard shocks, if that helps \:\)

Can be a rough ride sometimes, but that's how I like it \:D
