Not that we all have that goal, but we need to know these things about set-up and what additional parts and set-up needs.
Please can you add to your "features list" with resulting chassis lowering or an expected range within which we are not going to bottom out and we are not needing [hopefully] to modify our suspension further to compensate? Thank you, -jeff

The Evasive-spec Eibach R2 do not require RCA's to work properly. If you chose to run your car with zero fender gap, we would recommend running RCA's, whether they're R2's or SRC's. Dustin's (don't know his s2ki alias) car is actually about as low as my car with RCA's - maybe a rotation higher - and he does not have bottoming out issues as far as I'm aware. Eibach came down to take measurements and found the shock has enough compression travel. With the springs removed from the shock and compressed, the wheel would hit the body and suspension joints would bottom out before the shock. With a spring in place, these issues should not arise. It may visually bring up concerns of insufficient compression travel but after seeing that there is enough room, we can assure it's not an issue.

Keep in mind pulled OE or aftermarket fenders can make the fender gap look bigger than they really are when compared to stock fenders so we would advise against using fender gaps as a comparison for ride height.

Very interested in this setup, my only concern is that I want to lower the car 1.25" from stock height. Is this going to compromise the ability of the suspension to perform to its full potential??? I dont mind having to run RCAs but just want to know what I need to budget into the install when I finally pull the trigger. Im not concerned about bottoming out, but more concerned about too much preload being put into the springs to lower the car to my desired height.

Im also assuming they include a spanner wrench to make the adjustments in height since they are not pictured above

If the main spring starts to preload at 1.25" drop, I would back it down to around 1.5" drop. You can crush the helper spring completely as long as the main spring does not start to compress. At this height, RCA's are not needed. Eibach does supply a pair of red wrenches which are pictured in the first photo.
