so which is the better brand for lowering springs ? both available for the evo but cant decide on which, does anyone have one or the other and can comment on ride and handling if improved or not, please let me know and i plan to put on 18" x 9 rims& tires maybe 8.5 havent' decided yet, thnx

 

I liked the ride out of the Eibach springs a bit more than the H&R's. The Eibach springs generally wont drop the car as much as H&R springs will,but this helps a bit in the ride quality and makes them a bit more everydayable. If you dont care about ride (cars ride a bit hard anyway) and want a bit more performance and looks, go with the H&R's. Both are great quality items it just depends on what you really want. Another important part of the puzzle is what shocks you match with the springs. The more aggressive the springs performance and drop, the more performance oriented shock you want to have. If not properly tuned, the spring can overpower the shock resulting in a very poor ride. To see all the suspension items we offer, click on the following link:

cool thnx and check your pm

 

yea I had H&R's and switched to pro-kits for ride quality

eibach pro kit? you have any pictures by any chance??

 

Are these springs specific to the stock shocks? I'd like to lower a little bit, but keep the same characteristics. Are the stock shocks capable of running 1" lower?

 

been running the ProKits with the stock struts for over 2 months and they are great...

 

another pic of the ProKits...

 

that looks really nice, and are those 18" on your car diesel?? cause i m gettng 18 and that looks perfect. do you get any rubbing of tires or anythign like that? or while turning or any problems in general?

 

yes, they are 18 x 8.5 with a +30mm offset... no problems whatsoever... never heard it rub one time...

 

keep in mind though that your tire selection will play a role... as not all tires that are 245 wide are all the same width... some are larger by .1 or .2"...

 

ya i understand and thnx for the info

 

There're pictures of my car with the Eibach pro-kit under my profile that available for you to view the look of Evo with about 1" lower in the rear and 1.5" in front.

 

cool thnx
