Those of you with Eibachs

would you do it again?
did you need anything more than an alignment?
did your struts hold up?


I have the Eibachs and they are for aesthetic purposes only. I just want to get rid of the front gap. I would be fine with OEM feel. I am not tracking the car so coil-overs are out. I also don't want to deal with camber kits/toe bolts or replacing tires with worn inner treads but would take it to a great shop to get a quality alignment

Based on your desires and preferences, I think you will be satisfied with the Pro-Kit. My advice would be to get an alignment and enjoy.

No, I have a set of Eibachs in the garage still mounted on the stock struts. I will never do springs again. I don't track either, primary need was asthetics however I do not want ride quality to suffer, that improvement alone was worth the extra cost. My first month with them was great, reduced roll and squat and definately improved looks.. however I began to notice whenever I'd hit a medium to large road bump it would sound and feel like someone took a sledge to my frame. Your best bet is a low cost coilover like the sustecs, they really will make the G ride smoother then stock even.

To each thier own. Personly stiffer suspension makes me feel like I hve more control. I can deal with a bumpier ride
