#8362, "eibach or h&r"


          

I am about to get rid of my coil-overs and buy some springs. My question is whether I should get the h&r race sprigs or the eibach sportlines. Where is the best place to get these from too? Thanx!

get eibach's but you'll need aftermarket struts to go with them.... i have tokio blues with ebiachs and luv the ride with them nice and stiff no bounceing or rubbing with the 18's

H&R emoji I love the sport series. No complaints or any problems of any kind. I have heard more complaints with Eibach, which was my reasoning with going the H&R route. Many people love the Eibach's and have no problems, so it really is up to you.

What's wrong with your coilovers? I have the skunk2's and love them. I say forget about springs and keep what you have!

H&R sports dropped me about 2" in front, and 1.7" in the rear. The race springs go a little lower, and are stiffer than the sports. Make a choice on how low you want to go, and how hard of a ride you want.

Yes you are correct, but those measurements are BEFORE spring settle. Expect a 1/4" or a little more of spring settle over the rated drop.

I was in your spot too. I couldn't decide on eibach's or H&R's. I finnaly picked the H&R's. I got them because of their 1.7" in front and 1.4" in back. I think the offset will look neat.
