Thanks,

Ride height will not be effected by shocks.

Thanks a bunch, I currently have the Bilstein sports (or HD's ) with Bav auto short springs.

I want to return the car to normal ride height without having to buy new shocks/struts.

bav auto springs...Bilstein sux... I think many here have gone down this route. with the sports I believe the upward travel is less so you might get that cool pounding sound when driving over low spots. I really like the eibach/boge combination myself, couldnt believe the difference in ride quality and they still control the car better than the Billies...In my oppinion.

My feeling as well. I didn't do any significant research and just lucked out by matching them together. Boges were way cheaper than the bilsteins as well. Four years with no issues, highly recommended.

I have been more than satisfied with my Mtech, Sachs/Boge set-up.
