I agree about the Eibach/Bilstein setup
Its great! I got the Eibach Eurosports (which I'm convinced are the same as the Pro-Kits) and Bilstein shocks.
I agree with everything Raj said about them. They're a great setup. I also wouldn't consider them in a snowy locale, as they can be pretty harsh on rough pavement. On the generally smooth roads in TX, though, they rule!
I probably wouldn't do the Eurosport/stock sport shocks setup, although many here have. I just think the drop in height would make the stock sport shocks operate at a height they aren't designed for (i.e. compressed an inch too much).
I got my eurosports for $280 and my bilstein shocks for ~$350 using some creative couponing at carparts.com.
