Word of advice...if you are planning to use the springs on stock struts, go only for the prodrive (blue ones) springs or order a set of MachV,Epic springs or Swift sport springs from the USA. Anything else with end in a harsh and not even better/faster ride . Stay away from Tein, eibach, they will kill your struts in a jiffy.

STi Struts and Eibach springs are probably the best combination I have ever used on a wagon. I've had three wagons!

If lowering, it's a good idea to get some roll center adjusters too.

No, the stiffer springs will compensate for that. Wagons need wagon struts though - saloon ones will reduce the amount of negative camber available at the rear (though this can be fixed with camber bolts).
If lowering, it's a good idea to get some roll center adjusters too.

So if I got a set of STI shocks and Springs off a saloon and a set of Camber bolts I'd be ok???
