Basically it will be the same as koni shocks plus eibach pro springs, but they are ride height and damper adjustable. I'll let you know how they perform. It will be probably amazing to me because I am doing all the lower bars (front, rear anti-sway and strut brace).

Whatever you do only buy the drag radials from Nitto - nothing else. I have the Kumhos - used them last year for autocross (with great results) and use them this year for daily driving. If you want a grippy tire get: Falken Azenis, BFG g-force TA KDs, Bridgestone S03s.
