eibachs should be pretty close to stock feel... there has been much discussion as to whether you need to change the shocks when you change the springs- some think that new springs will weaken the shocks.

some leave the stocks (from another thread):

I just installed the eibachs with the stock shocks.... BTW, I took my first trip to the mountains for some twisties on the new springs and the ride was awesome and I didn't scrub one time....
