Camber kits are a must, Ive heard aligmment doesnt do much, Your wheels will be sitting tucked and the camber kits will make them straight, so without kits youll only be running on the insides of the tires and getting uneven tire wear. And I would get all 4 but the fronts are costly cause you will need the A arms which I think are around 300, then the kits for front and rear are around 180 I believe, So thats 360 for camber kits, and another 300 for A arms. Imo just run without it and flip the tires

I'm 41. I give a rat's **** what other people think of MY car. Do what YOU like... screw everyone else.

And I think cars lowered so far you gotta go sideways over a speed bump is stupid... so yeah, maybe 41 is old.

So after that and the cost of springs etc wouldn't it just be better save up the rest of the money for a reasonable set of coils?

in my opinion i think H&R has the best drop, but suffers a little ride quality, eibach has a mild drop, enough to close the gaps between the fenders and your wheels, but doesnt sacrafice any ride quality. i personally didnt experience neither of those srpings but that is what alot of people on this forum says!

Will 25mm fit all around I'm about to purchase 20mm but it jus looks flush I kinda want an aggressive look on stock 19s. Maybe 20mm upfront and 25 rear? Will there be any problems with this stance other than excessive stress on wheel bearing? Ex rubbing?

I think I'm going with eibach. I've used eibach in most of my cars since the 90's and always been pleased. Has anyone paired the eibachs with aftermarket shocks? I have tried eibachs with tokiko, koni's and KYB's and the koni's were the best in overall ride quality and performance. The tokiko's were the worst, I actually blew them out in less than a year but this was on a different car.

Looking to get springs within the next few weeks on my car as well.... not sure whether whether to go with eibach or h&r as of yet...

I got quoted a price of about $460 for eibach pro kit's installed. Good deal?

Eibach just isn't worth the money because the drop is so mild. H&R's go pretty low. Spent 170 and get Tein S-Techs. Perfect drop for a good price. With these you'll only need rear cambers and not the fronts. I didn't and never had an issue
