Eibachs Installed (pics)

Pics of my car with the Eibach Pro-kit are up. Not too much of an aggressive drop but it hasn't settled yet so we'll see.

The local tuner shop down the street. They should be pretty easy to get. I don't think Eibach will sell directly to the public but anywhere that does suspension upgrades will order it for you.

There's a lot less body roll going into turns but since the springs are progressive rate the ride quality isn't compromised much at all.

Re: Eibachs Installed (pics)

I was going to go but this weekend was just bad. I can tell you that with 18's you gotta go with 45's or 50's or it's gonna look small like on my car. Or maybe 19's with 35 or 40's. But you're right the handling is so much better. Almost no lateral roll, and it's not springy like Sportline springs.

Re: Eibachs Installed (pics)

After installing your springs, did you have any camber problems an alignment couldn't fix?

Re: Eibachs Installed (pics)

I always wonder if you just lowering the car with after market springs. Will it hurt your original struts (shocks)? What is the long term effects on that? And does having the sport suspension will help minimize the problem?

Re: Eibachs Installed (pics)

Did you have the sport suspension originally before you installed the Eibach's? If so, would you be interested in selling your factory springs? I want better suspension but I don't want the drop. If you upgrade your shocks later I'd be interested in your shocks too. Please email me at Machinegun_AK@hotmail.com
