Eibach Pro-Kit (pics)

Sorry for the crappy pics, but this was the first time I was able to get some pictures of my car with the new springs. It was early at Cars & Coffee & my camera blows.

They are Eibach Pro-Kits with Maximum Motorsport Isolators top & bottom. From the center of the center cap to the top of the fender, it sits at 14 3/8" in the front and 15" in the rear. That's after settling for about 150 miles in 2 weeks.

They lowered it more than Eibachs estimated drop. IMO the drop is perfect and the ride is much better than stock. Also, I can't got much lower and still make it up my ridiculously steep driveway!

I'm about to buy and install the Eibach Pro-Kit, and wondered about the isolators. Don't the MM Isolators actually cause it to sit higher than with stock isolators?

Looks good!

Everyone rags on the Eibachs, but they are a good spring. If I didn't get '00R springs (also made by Eibach), I would have gone with the ProKit as well.

As an FYI, here are the spring rates:

F: 450-570
R: 650-820

Notice the rear is stiffer - perfect for the IRS. If you really want to pin your car to the road, get the matching sway bar set (35mm & 29mm):

It was just $250 the other day - looks like the price jumped!

I too have the Eibach Pro kit, installed by previous owner. I love the ride quality and the handeling of the car, but I wish it sat a little lower in the back end. I believe both iso's are still in. Can anyone tell me how thick the top and bottom iso's are? What one should I take out first?

Everyone with the prokit did you need CC Plates? I am about to order a set and i know some people need, but everyone doesnt. Was just wondering if any of you added them.

I added them. I know some can get away without them, but didn't want to bother adding them later. Its a super-easy install.

I has settled a little bit. Looks about perfect to me now.
