I have 20s with Eibach springs. I'm considering downsizing to 19s and going with H&R springs. 19s just look better to me.

Changing just the look or any complaints with the Eibach setup?

I will be very curious to hear your opinion when you change to H&R springs, as not too many people have that experience / ability to compare different springs on the same car.

Is your location ok for 20's and lower profile tires?

Reason I ask, is my location has crappy roads with pot holes and 20's with less rubber would likely result in bent rims. So max 19's were required for me based on that factor.

Something to consider. Either way, please post pics when you decide.

Its not too bad, we do have potholes but i avoid most of them.
I have bought H&R Springs just looking to get them fitted (or is there a guide on how to do them?)
