Help with Eibach PK and Spacers for stock wheels

Hey Guys,

I am about to purchase the Eibach Pro Kit springs and wanted to know which spacers and what offset you would recommend? I eventually will go to 20" wheels but for now want to stay with the stock wheels. I would love to have a close to flush look after lowering.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Cheers!

20mm should give you a good look, if running stock

I have 20mm F and 25mm R on my stocks with the X on Eibachs. Fits pretty flush.

does adding spacers in any way effect the feel of the suspension?

It may, that's a good question... It gives you a wider stance, so maybe.

Cool

I never noticed much difference in everyday driving with H&R spacers on several cars. The car's looks were much improved however. Just make certain you get quality, hub-centric spacers. This is not a place to save a few dollars, if you get the cheapest spacers you will have to buy the spacers twice - not a cheap solution.
