I have STOCK Shocks/Struts with my Eiback Pro-kit on my 98 Eclipse Spyder.

It's been about 6 months now and everything is fine. A buddy of mine has the same setup for over a year now with no problems.

I love it. It's not a harsh ride at all. I think when they blow in another year or two, I'm gonna get the same shocks/spring. They only $25.00 or so each and I can install them myself (Simple).

Later,

Mike

I have tokico blues and the ride is still pretty good with eibach sportlines. It is a little bouncy on the highway, but it hangs corners with the best of them. I bought mine from www.shox.com

For those with Prokits and Tokico Blues, do you guys find your rides a little harsh? As in being bouncy as hell...it was almost similar to my blown stock struts....the cornering however is really good but the ride was getting me sick. Am I suppose to let it adjust for awhile or is this what I'm riding for the next couple of years?

I wouldn't call the ride harsh, stiff is more like it. The car does not bounce at all. You have tokico blues and it's bouncy? If it's truly bouncy, like it would be if you had blown struts, then there's something wrong. If it's bumpy then everything is fine and you just need to get used to it.
