I never seen the other two brands around atleast, Eibach is defenetly known. I would go with the RK ones according by height description, but thats my opinion.

Eibach Springs and Sensa-Trac Struts. Ive owned a few combos over the years, and that one is by far the best imo! You get a ride you and the family can enjoy either around the city or on the highway, and then throw it into the turns and the design of the sensa trac locks down and you have all the peformance you need short of building a real race car. I now run H&R with KYB and next level sway bars, aluminum control arms and poly bushings. Its pretty bumpy in there and I would go with the Eibach/Sensa combo again on the next suspension change.

yup because the rear sits higher then the front. I own Eibachs myself and I love them perfect wheel gap and they were good with the stock struts for about 20k ( km ) now their just wrote off, waiting for my monroes to come in ( good old ebay cheaper then the local places )

Oooohhhh, ya, didn't even think about that. One of those other brands had less of drop on the rear then the front... I guess if you wanted it jacked up. Lol.
