09 Cobra

I had thought about Eibachs but from what I have read and heard the eibach pros sag in the rear leaving the car with the rear setting lower.

I have HR Sports, and they corner well, but hit a bump and you feel it HARD. I would probably go with something a little soft in spring rate now.

BraMas

You have to remember that allot of people put the springs in wrong and than post so and so springs make a car set funny.
Like the guy in the thread that posted he tried his springs "facing every which way" and they still set uneven. Springs can only go in 1 correct way so his post tells me his springs are in wrong. Just my .02
I have used Eibach,H&R and Vogtland springs and been pleased with all 3.
You really can't go wrong with any of the better known spring MFG's.
and remember shocks and struts play a large roll on how rough your car will ride

09 Cobra

Are you running the stock shocks and struts?

VARifleman

Yes I am.

Thanks BraMas, My son and I have up-graded the shocks and struts to the adjustable type and it really did help with the ride. I was hoping to hear a little more on the average of drop noticed and if C/C plates were needed.

VARifleman

I will be getting C/C plates, but my alignment was "in spec"...at -1.5 camber. I'll be getting them and having the alignment shop put me to -.7 to -1.0. The inner tread of my front tires is gone.

09 Cobra

What amount of drop did you actual get and did you need C/C plates? Thanks

BraMas

General rule is anything over 1.5 need C/C plates but some people need them for less and some people don't need them for there 1.5 in drops.
I have them and I still tear up the insides of my front tires

VARifleman

See above, the inner tread of the front tires is gone. I will be putting them on, but I had those tires on for probably 20k, with the springs, maybe 10-15k. So not terrible, but still I should get C/C plates. Save up and get them later, but it's a good investment. It isn't like I went 3k miles and the tires were shot though.

I don't know how much drop it actually got, but the look is great.
