Sometimes it takes a book. I'm still waiting to hear how/why the H&R springs were responsible for your problems or his. Did you measure the springs to confirm they were collapsing? Were you running appropriate dampers for springs of that rate? Barring that, I'll have to believe, as well as suggest to others, that it is inaccurate.
As for them being POS, that too is totally unfounded. H&R has made quality springs for many cars for years and my experience is that these are no different. The Eibachs are an entirely different approach, being progressive in rate, starting softer than stock then getting stiffer at a non-linear rate. That is the epitome of compromise in that it does nothing for initial body roll, and probably increases it. Consequently, people tend to go with stiffer anti-sway bars than they would need with linear rate springs. That's bad if your goals include better handling in the classic sense of the term. Start with stiffer springs and matching dampers to the degree that is tolerable in terms of comfort, then add no more bar than necessary to achieve the desired end result and balance. There’s more to it than that of course, but for most street applications that’s the place to start.
Compromises are fine, our cars are full of them as is most everything. Some people like to lower their car while keeping the ride plush, so they find the Eibachs a nice compromise. I don't, but that doesn't bring me to call them POS.
I could go on and write that book if you like, but I normally I just try to provide enough info such that not only is the original post answered but the topic is covered well enough for anyone interested in it, and of course to dispel myths with no apparent basis in fact.
I really really really want a camber kit!
I dont like tire wear
