Default Performance springs? Which ones?

Okay, I'm thinking that my next project might be a set of performance springs. As I understand it, they will lower the car slightly and reduce the wallowing during hard cornering. I have an 03 non-turbo PT with the auto(yawn)matic. What about shocks? OR Struts as the case might be?

We have Eibachs (1.6" drop in the front and 2" drop in the rear)on my wife's '01 and on my '03 GT. We both love them for the look and the better handling.

I HAD THE EIBACHS ON MY 03 NON TURBO, I LOVED THE LOOK AND RODE GREAT. I HAVE THEM FOR SALE BECAUSE I WENT TO A AIR RIDE SUSPENSION. LET ME KNOW IF YOU ARE INTERESTED.

Hey DBROWN03, what condition are the springs in? What are you asking for them? Do you still have the paperwork that came with them?
I am very interested. Here's my e-mail address: snakepitt1@aol.com
Thanks,
Scott

I had the Eibach ProKit on my previous PT, an '02 N/A and liked the ride, handling, and looks alot. I also have the set for sale including original box and papers. I'm asking $150. I'm selling them because I'm using KW coilovers which I like even better than the Eibach's but of course at a greater cost.

Yeah ten times greater.

I've been thinking much about dropping mine, but aren't sure yet.
I have hit my front many time and aren't sure if lowering is such a good deal for me.
Persuasion?
