I am probably going back to stock for a while. The eibach springs do not seem to handle the extra weight on the rear from the convertible equipment, so i end up with virtually no rake, and a rough ride. I am thinking that lowering is not the answer for me. I will try something else in the spring. Perhaps some koni adjustables. My goals are less nose dive and less body roll without sacrificing clearance or comfort.

You would probably need coilovers and then run them at stock height. I don't think anyone makes springs that are stock height with a higher compression, though you might be able to find someone to make them.

I thought you were going to try them, since they don't lower the car as much...
