Eibach Springs

[Ryan W.]

Hey,

I already did a search and did not really find what I was wanting to know. I gots me a couple questions about the Eibach spings for the my 96 Camaro. Should I get V6 or V8 Springs, weather or not their may be a possiblity of someday putting a V8 in. Also, How much does the car lower? How is the ride quality? Can our cars actually handle any better, I dont want it to be rough, if it is, I wont bother buying them, hopefully I'll get some opinions from somebody with them, or with experience with them, I have been thinking about it alot, but I was not sure that the handling could be any better, also, I dont want to be scraping on everything becasue the car is too low, it already scuffs a when entering and exciting some driveways, and parking lots

Oh yes, what kind of shocks should I get, if I get any, I cant afford nothing too fancy, are KYB good, or?

thanks for any info in advance, and sorry for this long post

I have KYB 5-way Adjustable Shocks and they work great. They sell for about $90 per shock. As for the springs, mine are stock so I couldn't tell you. I thought about lowering springs but my car will scrape a lot where I live.

any other opinions?

I have the Eibach pro-kit. I got the V8 springs, for a stiffer front end for autocrossing.

The front was higher than the rear.

Luckily the Koni shocks had 2 settings for the spring. So I moved it to the lower setting, and then it leveled out.

The ride is a lot harder now. It's about 1.5" lower.

Hey, thanks

I think maybe they are not for me, I dont do any autocrossing, or real racing, so there is no real need, I cant afford it to be any lower either, the car already handles amazing I find, so I'll jsut leave it that way...thank you
