Eibach on Koni second perch?
Right now, I've got Eibach pro-kits on Koni's on the upper perch on an AP2. I was curious to see if anyone has this set-up on the lower perch as I was thinking about switching it up.
Right now, the car has a slight raked look where the front looks a hair lower than the back. When looking at the perch spacing, it looks like the rear will get lowered about 3/8" and the front 5/8", which will make it have more of a raked look, which is what I don't want. I'd rather it look the same as now, or a little more even. In doing some research, some have said it will be approximately 1/2", but wanted to be sure.

I have espilar springs with koni's and it looks very nice with the 2nd perch all around, BUT as for me i had to put it back to the 1st due to the fact of my rims and tire size, had major fender rubbing.(17x8.5 +45 all around)
Planing to roll fenders to clear.

screaminyellow: I may just try the rears and see what happens. Who knows, I may be happy with them like that.
s2krev: When you went from the 2nd perch back to the 1st, did you notice that it evenly went up and down 1/2"?
