If it is sitting too low you may want to replace the springs. I have not seen a set of factory 850 springs sag like the old 240's were prone to doing but there is a first time for everything. I have had excellent results with the IPD overloads in both the 700 and 200 series cars. I would take a look at what they have to offer. I recently put in a full set of Eibach springs and Bilstein shocks in a customers car. He was going for more of a lowered look and a stiffer ride. If my memory serves me correctly I think he was doing it on a recommendation from IPD. Anyhow it seemed to have worked out choice, his car was an '01 V70. If you are looking for a firmer ride the Bilsteins should provide that for you. As an aside, I had a need to call Eibach for a little customer support on their product and they were prompt, courteous, and knowledgeable.
