I wish I could offer more help, but I just have no to bad experience with shocks. As is with the tanabe dfs and the junk I like to haul in my trunk I am bottoming out, bouncing on the bump stops. In this case shocks wouldnt help me unless they were air assisted.
I had the nfs and developed a creaking in the drivers side rear. It seemed the spring had worn more than the passengers side or had a flaw in it. I decided to go lower and went with df vs nfs again.
Cant tell much in mpg. I am mixed on the ride over all from the nfs.
Ill keep that in mind if I see a Fit hang with me or pass me doing 70+ on the 2 and 3 lane wide merges for various interchanges.
In my experience with hotschkis(SP?), TRD, Tanabe and Eibach springs, Eibach wins. I had a set of their prosports on my scion xa. They removed the bumps from the pavement gaps, but a pot hole would make for a nice bounce.
The TRD was mild as well as the others. hotschkis makes some nice sway bars, but their springs were so-so.
