Well if your asking....then it sounds like it should be anywhere from 120-220, then an alignment.

Bump for more feedback. I'm considering Eibachs too, but I don't want to sacrifice handling and shock life for looks. So now that some of you have had them for a few months, how any regrets? Should you have done coil-overs in the first place?

I am and was on a budget, much tighter than on my last EVO, so the Eibachs are a temp solution for me.

If you have the money to do coilovers from the start, that is definitely the route to go.

Just got a ride in my friends MR with the eibach springs. I was really really impressed. Rode good over bumps and on the highway. Im wondering if it would ride better on the MR shocks vs GSR shocks.

How many of you guys got an alignment with the springs?Did you have to buy camber/caster kits for the front?I want to drop the car so bad but I like not having to worry about dips and bumps when ever I drive.Whenever I drove my integra I always watch for those things but with my X I drove across stuff I know i would have hit with my integra and I like the fact I haven't hit anything with my X.But I really need to lower my X.I have eibach with kyb agx's on my integra and love them.I'm just curious if you guy's had to get camber/caster kits.

Prokits for the win! I have them on my 99 Eclipse on Tokico Illuminas and I must say they ride amazing for DD.

Just installed them yesterday. The drop on these springs is perfect. The car looks completely different now. I love them. Ive seen some people complain about these springs riding too rough but the difference between these and stock is barely noticeable. I definetly recommend them

Oh and I didnt cut the bumpstops

I didn't get camber/caster kits. I just brought it to an alignment shop 3 weeks after installing the springs and they aligned it while I was watching. Just angle the car in every driveway and road bumps and you'll be fine.
