I've got Eibachs and no spacers. Able to be re-aligned without additional supporting suspension mods like camber kits. There's like a 1/2-3/4" gap between all tires and fenders now. Ride is good. Slightly more stiff and bumpy than stock, but to be expected. Car doesn't dive or roll nearly as much now

real IPL Bumper. also I think Eibach gives a better ride quality compare to stock S springs.

Thinking about getting eibach 20mm spacers to go with my eibach springs. Anyone have any experience with this setup or of just the spacers?

Did you make the move yet? I just put Eibach springs on and thinking about the same.. Or even 25mm rear as I see others have done.
