Lowered with Eibachs

amb99 · 03-15-2009, 01:48 PM

Here are some quick pics of my car lowered with Eibach springs. I had the install done on Thursday, these pics were snapped on Friday. I have EDC and wanted to be conservative, but the results exceeded my expectations. I will snap more pics because the springs have settled in a little more since the install.

MrHarris · 03-15-2009, 07:04 PM

That actually looks pretty low in the front. How's the ride?

schnell325 · 03-15-2009, 10:34 PM

psuwcc112 · 03-16-2009, 07:25 PM

Looks awesome. Do you have any spacers added or just spring??

spyderco10 · 03-16-2009, 11:52 PM

the front looks much lower than the 0.5" drop that Eibach states

Good eye!! Love my detour. My car has no spacers, just the Eibachs. I love the ride, it handles the way you think it would from the factory. Not bouncy at all, just a bit firmer. Here is another profile pic with the rims mounted.

Hoops · 04-03-2009, 09:58 AM

That looks perfect! Ive ordered the Eibach Pro Kit and im hoping to have them fitted next week along with the Eibach spacers (15mm front, 12mm rear). Well done matey.

Sick! I guess I know what my car will look like since we have the same color. BTW- what kind of lip is that?
