They are both good brands that are very popular. You should be good to go with either one.

also your stock struts will blow quickly with the lowered springs.

You should save up until you can afford aftermarket struts so you do not have to do / pay for the labor twice.

You also can go with Coil-over lowering kits..

You could get aftermarket struts that arent coilovers.

I personally have ran eibach springs on stock struts for 6 years without issue.
