Is anyone running Eibach Sportline springs?


I have BBK specific rate springs on my car now and I'm thinking about switching to the sportline spring. I want a lower stance than what I have now and the sportline is pretty low.

From what I've read the Sportline has the greatest drop out there right now

I have them, if you plan on getting lts, they are a pain in the ass dut to it being so low. Its absolutely worth it but you really have to pay attn to where you are going and what your doing IMO. It looks like sex here is a couple of pics.

Sweet thanks. I already have to watch where I go but lower is better. I put Roush stage 2 lower control arms in the rear and it raised the back of the car about an inch.

they are 18x9 ford gt wheels, not fr500s. the front are 275/35/18 nitto 555, and the rear are 295/35/18 nitto 555r. i did have some problems with the tires rubbing so i had to roll the fenders.

i dont notcie any road noise at all without my isolaters, but i probably would if my car wasnt so loud.


ps: sms, to your sig, how about low 11s, high 10s and 26 mpg!!!!!

Get H&R Super Sports. They're pretty much just as low as the Sportlines, but better quality. I've had Eibach Sportlines and Prokit Springs, they're too soft IMO and I've heard of them wearing out over time. The H&R SS springs have a stiffer spring rate, which you might like for cornering, but also might hate for daily driving on bumpy roads.

Check my garage if you wanna see H&R SS springs. These pics are hours after I put them in. They have settled another 1/4 inch or so since then. Its a nice drop!

I think when it comes time for my car I am going to do H and R's. I hear much better things about them than eibach. My buddy has eibachs on his camaro and it rides like shit. I know its a different car but still
