Is anyone running Eibach Sportline springs?

F8L GT · July 30th, 2008, 01:37 PM

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.

01GTstang · July 30th, 2008, 02:00 PM

i have them. compared to a stock mustang you can def tell its lowered a lot it also handles better with those springs. however i don know much about the bbk springs

F8L GT · July 30th, 2008, 02:06 PM

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

gray8188 · July 30th, 2008, 02:12 PM

I have them and love them!!

01GTstang · July 30th, 2008, 02:13 PM

Then get em i have no complaints

Drgnracin72 · July 30th, 2008, 05:28 PM

i have them and they are very low. i also dont run isolaters with mine. you will hti your front bumper on inclines and if you headers you will scrape them occasionally.

347stroker · July 30th, 2008, 05:37 PM

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.

F8L GT · July 30th, 2008, 06:36 PM

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.

What size wheel and tire combo are you running?

347stroker · July 30th, 2008, 08:42 PM

Im pretty sure its FR500's 18X9 and 18X10 with 295's out back. nots sure about the fronts or tire brand though.

how much road noise are you getting w/o the isolators?

Drgnracin72 · July 31st, 2008, 06:40 PM

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.

thanks, i was actually going to get the cj pony brand thats made by eibach to there sportline specs but cheaper. but now ill probably go with the h&r. do you have any pics?

Abe02GT · July 31st, 2008, 08:18 PM

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!

that looks nice. ill take some side profile pics of mine so you can see what it looks like with the bbk springs and roush control arms and why i want it lower

Roos85 · August 1st, 2008, 12:00 AM

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

v606er · August 1st, 2008, 12:11 AM

with steeda springs (i think 1" front 1.25 rear) would i need control arms or anything else like that?

F8L GT · August 1st, 2008, 12:16 AM

i think pretty much all you would need is cc plates

F8L GT · August 1st, 2008, 12:17 AM

but im not totally sure on 06 style
