[mkiv] suspension upgrade

[John Cribb]

I have Eibach's and stock shocks on my '97 and it's a very rough, low
ride. I bottom out on many parking lot speed bumps and have to take
steep driveways at weird angles. The car looks really good when it's
parked though!

I don't know, but doubt if the KYB's would help this situation much, so
I'll probably be going with the CS's one of these days.

Marshall,

Would you say the Eibach/KYB combos are comparible to the Tein CS's?
I've heard the rubber mounts on the CS make for an awesome ride.

Tein CS's are nice and I can easily recommend them - try out someone's
car with Eibach's and KYB's as well.
