Neither. Go with Swift Springs. You'll thank me later.

The sportline drops lower than the pro-kit. Depends on what you want.

I'll tell you from first hand experience. DO NOT waste your time with springs. Huge waste of money.

Sans Swifts I would argue. They are the only springs worth running. If not for swifts, coilovers.

do not get the eibach springs unless you like compounding your spine togther.
it rides like a racecar but unless you drive on perfect roads its far to bumpy.
i know first hand. Members here like the swift springs i have never tried but 1" lowering is not alot but its better than 2" and ridding like a wheelbarrow.
BUT BEFORE YOPU BUY ANYTHING wait because im about to re-write the
book on lowering fits in just a few hours time. aiming for 2.5+" drop and a ride like CANNED rainbows!!

Another vote for Swifts. They are the best off the shelf lowering spring available for the Fit IMO.
