Thumbs up Sedan Lowered on Eibach Pros
Considered lots of options... went with the Eibach Pros... so far so good - I like the look a lot! The ride comfort is just a tad stiffer than OEM stock non-sport & handling is a bit better (I had Stillen anti-sway bars even with the stock springs & shocks) - might be a more drastic difference without the sways... I would recommend the Eibachs - so far they were the right choice for me... here are some pics...

That looks better than the ones I have seen in person. They always seem to sag. I am a fan of the lower in the front springs.

You might what to consider Eibach Sportline... they are quite a bit lower. I was after a very moderate drop - primarily wanted better cornering - The Pro kit achieved both my needs...

There are tons of choices (as you are aware)... If you are looking to slam your car the Eibach Pros are definitely not the right springs.

the weird thing is the driver-side is lower than curb-side... That is expected after time but new I was perplexed... I'm gonna let 'em settle for a few hundred miles and see how they sit.

That looks nice. I like the blacked out tails with the blacked out side marker. I assume that you are running non-sport shocks.

Were you get your alignment back to specs?

How far are you out?

I agree, pro-kit gives the car a saggy a$$. It's the best ride height for an all-season daily driver, but I'm tempted to chop a 1/4"-1/2" off the front springs. Same thing with my old car, Acura CL + Pro-kit.... saggy a$$.

Pro-kit with 19"s (235/35) (265/30):
