Brandon,

Having experience with both I would go with Eibach..
They make the car sit very nice (level).
H&Rs are a bit low in the front and a bit high in the rear... (with proper
strut bearings).

I also find Eibachs to be a perfect compromise between everyday driving and
performance.

Hope this helps.
