I've donde pretty much all there is to be done suspension-wise.

I can comment on the Eibach's, the ride with stock shock absorbers is bone jarring, with the Koni's it gone a little better.

I grew tired of them ans switched to Vogtland and the difference is very noticeable, much better ride and the handling is just as good.

When I switched to 225/40-18 the steering came alive, turn in response is immediate.

Then again I also have a BTG strut bar and Eibach Anti-Roll Kit, my car now handles pretty well.

If I had to choose based on looks I would go with the 18's, but the handling benefit I believe is greater with the springs.
