If I end up not happy with the drop/leveling effect of the Eibach's, I'll most likely look into a set of KW v3's down the road.

No noticeable decrease in acceleration at all, I'd be surprised if the wheel and tire combination is actually lighter than stock overall. As for the diameter, I don't believe they're THAT much bigger than stock so I don't think much of a difference is made there either. Having the tire on a wider wheel does seem to aid in initial response though, if only a slight one.
Check out h&r super sports. They are 1.4 front 1.6 rear and I believe the eibachs are 1.4 all around and the h&r supers feel better than my stock suspension. Pics are a couple posts back.

A teaser of my Works with Project Kics lugnuts (awesome lug nuts!)

A Cool thing about my Works is do you guys know that the sticker glows in the dark? Awesome IMO.

I forget the weight (since I'm not at home to look where I wrote it down at) but they are 18x9 +38 on Connential ExtremeContactDW's 245/35/18. I was thinking about getting Rota's but I didn't want to cheap out like most people. Just do it right the first time. Also, the work stickers on the rim glow in the dark, big awesome plus!
