Eibach: 32mm, 730 lb/in, 2 way adjustable, claimed 76% increase in rigidity
Stillen: 34mm, 720 lb/in, 3 way adjustable, claimed 21-48% increase in rigidity
Whiteline: 27mm, 2 way adjustable
Hotchkis: 35mm, 3 way adjustable, claimed 60-160% increase in rigidity
Can anyone fill in the holes, or help me understand why there is so much variance in claimed stats (I.E. the stillen is bigger than the eibach but much less rigid, and the hotchkis is slightly larger than the stillen but MUCH more rigid)
Thanks

No mention of the Tanabe sways? Or are they not worth mentioning?
