    Mixing springs?

    I currently have Eibach pro-kit springs all the way around my car with bilstein sport shocks.

    what would happen if i took out the front prokit springs and put H/R kit front springs in?

    I ask because i want my front to be lower than it is now not by a lot maybe another .25-.5 inches lower.

    From what I understand about Eibach's they have a low spring rate. Assuming that you are installing H&R Race in the front, then that is going to be one mean ol understeering pig-dog. Check the spring rates here http://www.r3vlimited.com/board/showthread.php?p=824242 and see what you are dealing with, As you will notice, the rear springs should have a higher spring rate
