favorite - strut/shock/spring combo?

[Mike Miller]

I've driven stock, stock with Bilstein,  and Eibach/Bilstein - even on Montana's gravel roads, I prefered the Eibach combo

i'm confused - why are you displeased?

i did listen to you - i'm no longer looking at konis and H&R springs - which would make the car overly aggressive (as my SHO was). i'm researching used 1992 URS4 springs or V8 springs. the reason i mention bilsteins sports - is because they are much cheaper than konis. boge are the same price virtually as bilsteins - and are close to stock in dampening, no?

i believe you are saying that even with URS4 springs, the bilsteins have too much rebound unless i go with a much more aggressive spring, like H&R or Eibach? and then the car would ride like a rickshaw?
