No I have H&R DRM...I don't know I have just heard a bunch of varying opinions obviously. But I do want a decent drop, not slammed by any means...I just didn't want the big monster truck look I have going now..I don't mind rake either..Its going to be a day or so before our spring compressor is mounted so I figured I would throw it out there....Make myself happier...Im all about handling too I have hotchkiss and they are awesome I just wanted to compliment them a little bit..And make it look nicer obviously

I disagree. I have the Eibach Prokit installed on my 2009 G37s Coupe 6MT. I was driving a long distance to work for a while before I got my commuter car, and I got VERY uneven tire wear. Granted, I drove about 150 miles a day - nearly all highway miles, so that would definitely contribute to some tire wear, but a camber kit would definitely help.

Did you do a wheel alignment at all? Normally you wait for the springs to settle after a week, but my lazy *** didn't do it for 6 weeks. My inner tread was pretty toast. After my alignment, my wear has been pretty acceptable. No camber kit at all. I guess YMMV depending on your driving habits and tires.
Yep, did numerous alignments. I've had the Eibachs on for about a year and a half. I had the dealer do the first alignment after I had them installed. They've never been in spec. I was riding on Hankook Ventus V12's 245/40R19 all around.

I'm a sedan on Eibach's with stock 18's and 20mm H&R's all around. Love it, zero complaints here. Looks better, handles better, add sways and a GTspec strut bar & you'll be very impressed. Check my garage pics if you want to check it out. Zero rubbing too.

Springs
Hey guys,
I am currently evaluating whether to get the springs or full coilovers for my 2014 Q60. I love the Eibach springs but will they mess up your stock suspension after a while a cause your car to bounce? I had this happen on my Maxima with Tein Springs.
Also are the spacers required? I am trying to stay as close to stock as possible.
