Who's got Eibach springs?

I know, I know, SWIFTS, ESPELIR GT, blah, blah, blah. I got a stupid crazy (to cheap to even mention) deal on a set of Eibachs, so I'm going to use them 'til coilover money comes around.

What do you guys like/disslike about them? The guys at MLR swear by the Eibachs, so they have to have something positive about them.
I also noticed that they're the only spring that bumps the front rate up higher than the rear, which I prefer anyways.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

All springs are cheap, so there's no price you could get on Eibachs to make them worth putting on your car. If they were given to me, I'd try to sell them for profit.

My eibachs are almost identical to the OEM springs but slightly firmer but most importantly the car sits perfect. The gap in the front has gone.

Worthwhile mod IMHO

Thanks Oracle1. That's all I wanted to hear. I've taught myself the limit of the stock suspension, so I don't want to detract or stray too far from it yet.

Coilovers are definitely in my future, but I've driven a couple (including a set of Ohlins, and I didn't really like any of them) so, I'm going to keep searching.
