I have eibachs, which is fine but an extra .3 never hurt no one....

I know this is an old topic but tell me something. Do you have them fit with the stock coilover/shock? And how is the handling/feel?

FYI-we only lower the car 1" because anything less actually made the car handle worse than stock. We did all of the R&D on my car back in '99.

Espelier here. Ride is about 30% stiffer than stock, you deffinitely feel the stiffness! The drop is so perfect with 1

Can we see more pics of car with 17in wheels with Eibach...there doesn't seem to be too much floating around.

vtecvoodoo, are you saying that you won't get that much performance losses with these over stock, and can you run stock shocks with these?
