Hey Jon23, your pics and eibach configuration was very helpful with my eibach install last weekend. I also went with the H&R DRM 15mm spacers front and rear due to not wanting a too aggressive look.

I'm glad my thread was of help! I recently bought a rear camber kit and will be getting the front kit soon. Once I get them all installed, I'll see if I decide to go with 20mm spacers for the front if needed. If that is the case, I'll then put my one set of 15mm up for sale.

I didnt buy a front camber kit due to an eibach rep saying it was really needed for the prokit drop. Since you've been running this config, have you had a great deal of inner wear on your fronts or rears since the drop? I got my car aligned yesterday after a week of driving and the car drives fine. Curious to know???? My camber in the front is -1.6 for left and right.
I've been lowered on the Eibachs for a few months now and have not noticed any abnormal wear on the tires, but it might be too early to tell. I'm getting the camber kits to rectify the negative camber, I don't really like the way my wheels look like, that's all.

So its been a year now that I dropped my G, EIABACH 1.5 front/.9 rear and I started noticing some tire wear in the front after about 3k miles, rears where fine. I was sitting at -.6 camber and finally took it to the dealer and they where able to fix the problem without any other further mods. I was looking at kits but where ridiculously expensive, so dealer had a special balancing and alignment for $129.00..

Yea, I was sitting at the same as you. I went to sears cause they had a special as well but thats as close as they got it. So I took it to the dealer to get it balanced and aligned and now am sitting at factory specs. Call'em up and ask them.

Question... So looking for springs and I found 2 pairs/ 4 total hub-centric no name brand that I recognized for 129 shipped on ebay. You thinks its worth it? Or should I just go with the H&R

Dam, I should have went ahead and paid the dealer cost of $99 vs saving the $20 from sears.. I'll ride it out for a couple months..Thanks

Yea I was the same way, tried saving a little but in the end just ended up spending more. Ride it out, but the longer you wait the more damage your inner tire tred will get unless you are planning to change em out anyways..
