so i have the choice between the Koni Str.T or the eibach pro dampers, front and rears,
koni's are cheaper, but not by a whole lot.
92 hatchback 5.0L 5-speed. currently has eibach sway bars, rear upper/lower control arms, sub frame connectors, front strut tower brace, and i replaced the worn stock seats with some heavily bolstered bucket seats.
i've got 15" rims with bfg radial t/a's. i know the bigger sidewalls aren't as good for handling but thats what im looking for. good street handling but with a comfortable ride. each upgrade tightened the handling and the chassis up and shocks/struts are next on my list. I'm doing the caster/camber plates at the same time. I'm not installing lowering springs, stock springs only.
also, these are the two options im looking at, either way they are an upgrade over old won oem spec shocks. the only other option is the cheaper KYB shocks, excel G-2 or someting like that.
thanks for any advice/opinions/experience

I ran the Eibach springs/struts/shocks and they make for a solid handling package but the ride is a little harsh for a dd imo.
