eibach AND aggressive driving?

so everyone talks about how nice the ride is but has anyone pushed their car with these springs? i love the drop and it would be nice to stay comfy. however, i ran linear springs on my 35 and loved the predictability. just curious how progressive springs behave under stress. thanks!

hopefully not into trees this time but i drive pretty hard as you can ask of the guys. so far i love the drop of the eibachs and hopefully no camber kit, so its just a matter of performance now. i guess with sways and stb, it should still be an improvement over stock. still interested to see what tein comes out with.

bump for more info please!

As far as the quality of the product, I guess I can vouch for that.

I put the Eibach Pro Kit on my FX35 2.5 yrs ago.

Since then, I've put about 200 hard track miles and about 60 hard autocross runs on these springs, and they work great.

In other words, if they can handle throwing around this kind of weight, they can certainly handle the G37 without blinking, one can only surmise-

Hit the track and find out-

Eibach feels okay around corner... I still feel that bodyroll there even at 25mph.

I like mine alot but I don't really push it to the limit, more of a DD. I have only rubbed once and that was on a pothole.
