Anybody have Eibach springs with stock dampers?

I've got Ohlins on mine, they're fantastic and very comfortable. I'm at TGM on the 19th of September (may be the 12th, need to double check). You're welcome for a look around and passenger ride (time depending).

Firstly, thank you all for the replies so far.
Tom's suggestion of Eibachs was based on their Pro kit, as the springs are progressive. Looking at their springs on line it appears that some of the springs are progressive, but some appear to be linear. Which leads me to an obvious question - do Eibach make both types of spring for the S2000?
I'll work out what I'm doing over the next few weeks, and see if I can take up one of the offers of a passenger ride. Many thanks to those who have offered.

Firstly the progressive springs:

Whereas these appear to be linear, although the description states that they are progressive:

What I'm looking for are the progressive springs, so that the spring rate increases with compression - the theory being that at low speed the springs are more compliant.

I have the ones in your first link. Like i say if you can wait a couple of weeks it's no problem to take you for a spin if you can meet at TGM. It's worth noting that I am running eagle F1's which according to some on the tyre thread have soft sidewalls which make the ride comfier. By the 19th I'll be on continentals which are also soft apparently.

They are progressive and are the ones I fitted
