Can anyone tell me how much different their car rides with the Eibach Pro Kit springs and factory shocks. I am trying to decide if I need enew springs or not.

You don't "need" new springs yet. At least, not unless there's something wrong with the stock ones. I've got the Pro Kit and stock shocks/struts. Prepare for some serious rearend pole vaulting over heaves in the road. After they break in, though, it's fine. It takes just a few hundred miles for the springs to take a set.

Did you install them yourself? Any pointers on the install?

Thanks

I didn't notice much of a difference in ride after my springs were installed, I am still using stock struts and shocks. But the rebound was noticable going over bumps, because the stock shucks/struts are compressed more, they stuggle with holding rebound in check. Replacing the struts and shocks with aftermarket (i.e. Tokico) is the preferred way to go, something I plan on doing eventually.

there's definately a difference in the ride...one must sacrafice alittle ride quality to gain the cool look afterwards...I only have about a 100 miles on mine and I think its getting smoother...or I'm just getting used to it. (i'm going to change the shocks too)
