    I personally like the 0.75" drop the SLP Eibachs give you...



    I think thats plenty of drop... And its what I'm buying in the future even though they cost a little more.

      Oh, well done Cardinal. I had forgotten those. The only problem is I don't think anyone is going to want to spend the extra doe. Those are probably what I'll be getting.

        Ive just installed Eibach pro series springs on my v6. It lowered it around 2in in the front, and the same in the rear. I have ground effects and i still do not scrape, but to jack the car up, it needs to be driven on 2x6s and then its still a close call..

          A few questions. Have you driven into any steep driveways? How about any steep speed bumps? How's the ride when you go over bumps and drive on the freeway?

            Isn't the .75" drop of the SLP Eibach's on a V8 and compared to the stock V8 springs? Do you know that it will result in a similar drop for a V6?

              The car would not make it up steep driveways before the drop. I have not yet had a problem with speedbumps tho. As for the ride on the highway, its feels good to me. I'm used to my 82 TA with a suspension so stiff when you jack under the left front a-arm, it lifts that side of the car and the other front wheel with barely any deflection. It was worth the money to me!
