I'm running Eibach Pro Kit springs without any of the issues that you've mentioned. My cars handling is brilliant....

Found the problem with the steering wheel twitching over bumps and it was my fault. When I installed Roll Centre Adjusters I neglected to install similar spacing to the tie rod ends. This weekend I removed the RCAs and took it for a drive and the twitching over bumps was gone. So I think I have misled people who probably presumed that the tie-rods were also spaced, as only a dope would do the control arms and not the tie-rods.  
 RCAs are really overkill for a road car, much more relevant for track use. I'm going through the exercise as the car is a project for my son (and I) to learn about cars.
