Did you guys install these yourself. If you did, you would have noticed that you needed a hella spring compressor to get your stock springs off and when you put the Eibach Springs on the KYB shocks the tops just fit right on with a loose spring. This concerned me when I installed mine. What is happening is you are not bottoming out, what is happening to you and me and everyone else with this setup is that when your wheels drops into a pot hole or recovers from a hard compression bump you top out the shock and rattle the spring. Unfortunately there is nothing that can stop this from happening since the springs were so low to start with and the shocks were so short. The only real way to stop this is to switch to a spring / damper combo that was made for each other or go to a coilover situation. We had a track day last week and my driving instructor told me that it was fine as long as we didn't get airborne since the springs and shocks were meant to keep the car from going down not up. Hope this helps!
