Eibach pro-kit. Whoever told you to stay away from one of the worlds largest suspension component makers is a fuggin ratard.

I would have to agree with Hoss. You have been given misinformation. Eibach makes a great set of springs.

They sag...I have proof just cant access it while Im at work. I never will put a set of Eibach springs on a car again. H&R Super Sport springs is where its at. I personally have Eibach springs on my car(Prokits) and I hate them. The rear end sags and the front wheel gap is still there. When i get home next I'll post some pictures of it or you can just PM me and i'll send you some. But also my friend's GT he put the CJ Pony Parts springs on his car that were made by Eibach and the front passenger side spring cracked in the perch. Im never putting Eibach springs on anything ever again. Just personal opinion from what ive seen on my personal car as well as a friend's car. Pics will come tomorrow probably.

I hated the way my last gt rode with basically full suspension done.

Mine now with Sportlines and FACTORY shocks/struts rides like a cadi compared to the last one. It isnt as low, but it's nice going over speed bumps opposed to going around them...

Nothing like stressing the stock components.


If you would get the CORRECT components to work with your spring choice it wouldnt ride like crap even with full suspension.
