it's an opinion... kind of like your post is an opinion. maybe I should put that so you can understand the difference...

I *think* it will be too low... and the car will handle worse, ride rougher, and look stupid.


maybe you should learn the difference between "facts" and "opinions".

so many angry people in Gallery when you joke about having slammed cars.


Can't believe I have to clarify, but, the lower perch on the Konis will be TOO LOW with the eibach pro-kits.

it'll look ridiculous, ride like crap, handle worse, and overall be retarded.

stick to the top perch. The eibachs are plenty low enough.

I agree. Eibach drops the car roughly 1.25 in the front and 1.00 in the back, plus using the lower perch adds another 0.5 inch giving a total of 1.75 front and 1.25 rear. Not at all slammed, but its not subtle drop either.
Eibach springs are a 1.00 inch drop all around

They drop more than 1 inch in the front. I would say 1.25-1.5 front and 1-1.25" rear.

You said it WILL be slammed, handle like garbage and ride bad.... those are strictly YOUR opinions and aren't true.

1.) It wont be slammed.... it's a 1" drop.
2.) It handles good... check the spring rates compared to stock.
3.) It will ride a bit rougher, not alot by any means though.

Clarify your "opinions" before posting up for people who just want some help.

The OP was asking for a picture of a specific suspension setup. In other words, he was asking for FACT, not OPINION. You might wanna get that part straight. And the pics posted above pretty much prove your OPINIONS to be NONSENSE.

I had the same setup. Never took pics because the ride was awful in my opinion and put it back on the upper perch the next day. I had no finger gaps front and rear.
