Very nice pics guys!! For those who have dropped the car with just springs, how is the ride. Can I just get springs or do I need camber kits as well. Definitely interested in eibachs. Maybe sportline cause I had them in my se-r before. And I had tein s in my evo. Love the way sportlines sit and feels.

I don't believe Eibach makes the sportline springs for the V36 sedan. The only option that we have when it comes to springs from Eibach would be the pro-kit. If you wanted to go lower you could always do the H&R springs.

you can get away with not getting camber kits if you go with eibachs

H&R you might need a kit.

I went with H&R.....I have a pretty long daily commute and I am pleased with the ride for a daily driver. As for camber kits....I think it depends on taste and budget. I personally elected to get the front and back camber kits because I wanted to get more milage from my tires. I do think some negative camber is pretty sexy though!!!!

I must be getting too old....the cars are all sweet, but when dropped they just seem to look saggy to me in the rear? The fronts look good, but the rear seems too low. I think I'd have to see one in person as I know pics can be misleading.....

The picture is a bit deceiving....and it was taken prior to the camber kit install. I loooooove the stance of the car now and it handles soooo much better. But I understand...... Cars and women....everyone has there own taste!

As for the comfort...I personally think the wheels had more of an impact on ride quality than the drop. You are always going to have some trade off with ride quality when getting more aggressive handling and stance. I commute 60 miles a day to and from work and the roads are far from perfect. I was concerned before the install but after reading the forums and gathering a consensus from other members I decided to take the plunge and I have zero regrets.

So with eibach springs I don't need camber kits?? Im defenetely not a fan of open wheel wells... In fact it makes the car look ridiculous... I don't want to go too low I wanted sitting pretty with 20's. Would u guys recommend to go with eibachs n 19's. Let me know what u guys think!!

I am in similiar situation bought staggered 20's for my girls 07 sedan and the rears are a little aggressive so I am basically looking for the best drop that will drop minimal in the rear but get that wheel gap away from the front.
