[Shotimes] Eibach springs with stock struts?

I'd call it firm. To me, it's the best combination of good handling and
street-ability of any SHO I've owned. It feels as though  it's got
similar limits as my 94, but with much better dampening. For instance,
around bends and such, lean, push and roll are pretty much the same
between the two cars. But, where the 99 is superior is on normal every
day roads. As an example, there's a road on my way home with a pretty
healthy dip. In the 94, it bounces so bad that I damn near smack my head
off the headliner. In the 99, the dampening is such that you almost
don't even know the dip is there.

I've never ridden in a SHO with Tokico's/Eibachs. Anyone here ridden in
one and also a Gen 3 - preferably a 99?

Is the 99 stiff? firm? soft? sloppy? 


you may like Tokicos with cargo coils. Just a guess.
I'm not sure what the spring rates are though..
