They compare well actually. The rear drop is lower than the H&R which gives it a more even appearance for wheel gap.

These springs and shocks seem like a good cost-effective alternative to coilovers. Really nice price on them. The springs are too much of a drop for me though, so I think I'll pair the CS struts with RB springs (sorry!).
That will come later in the year though. Need wheels first.

I may be overthinking it, and being a bit picking. Body wise, from jacking points to the ground it's perfectly level. Just top of wheel arch to wheel is a lower in the rear. But man does it handle awesome. I have it set at 5f/7r clicks from soft and it rides great, with very little body roll. Very happy so far.
Have an autox event next saturday, and will put them to the test. Unfortunately ill be racing on stock tires.

I agree, I really like the height and lack of wheel gap. I might be a little jealous haha.

My shocks have arriveddelivered yesterday!
had a set back though my alloy has a crack in it
Looking at where the adjuster is on the rears, is it possible to adjust them without jacking the car up?
You should be able to. I can reach through the fenders and get to them on the shop car.

I'm surprised to see those springs are only 25% stiffer than stock...I thought you guys were going for a more track oriented setup. H&R seem to be the stiffest available, at only 30% over stock. I was expecting to see something on the order of 75-100% stiffer.

Derrick, what is the highest spring rate that the rear shocks can handle ?
Thanks

You can definitely adjust the rears. I have the H&R springs, and if I reach from the rear and down low as much as possible I can reach the adjuster on the driver's side with no problem. My arm is barely wedged between the tire and wheel arch. On my passenger side, the adjuster seems to be rotated slightly towards the back of the car and I can barely get my arm in far enough to touch it. It hurts, but I can do it, and I'm seriously skinny. You should be able to adjust them fine, I would just take care to note exactly where the adjuster is facing, and correct it if it needs, before you get the rear wheels back on and put it down on the ground.
I must be doing it wrong or something. (lol2) I have thin arms (6' 1" and 160 lb) and there is no way I could adjust mine by sticking my arm between the top of the tire and the fender with the Eibach springs. I have to lay behind the car and reach between the backside of the wheel and the inner fender.
