I have had eibach sportlines with oem dampers and then H&R supersports with bilstein B8's...IMHO the eibachs were more comfortable but I wanted a stiffer spring...and the oem dampers wore out and it was time for sport dampers anyhow  :happy2:

Tein S-tech springs are dirt cheap and a good drop for £100

A cup kit may be the ticket...as they do come with sport dampers ready to install along with the springs
