Default I was told '92 springs + bilstein HD shocks
It's still kind of low, but its a good half inch higher then H&R springs.

Default ECS sells rear spring perch spacers that bring the tail up 13mm or 20mm
they're only $25US. I'll be ordering a set at some point in the spring.

Eibach and S6+ both steer clear of speed bumps. I've had both, and I run Stromung.

Default Depends how high/big the bumps are. I have H&R sport and it clears average speed bumps.
Eibach is not necessarily higher than H&R's - slightly stiffer maybe.. But sometimes i'm so tempted to jump ship to S6+ or 92.
