Mmm, you shouldn't for the Pro-Kit. Maybe. Best way to tell is after you install, check to see if the camber is messed up. You should be able to tell just by looking at it. The Pro-Kit is a pretty nice drop, but if in the future you'd want to go lower, I wouldn't get them. Also remember, dropping on aftermarket springs with stock struts isn't the best idea. You're more prone to blowing struts. Fortunately, I haven't blown mine yet, but hopefully I can buy some new ones during summer.

And I don't think the 2.xs are lower? Don't know though!

If you go that route, make sure you get a camber kit, atleast for your front. Else, you'll be chewing through tires in close to a season.
^thanx for the advice, sounds good..i think i like the sound of 1.8/1.75"..post pics? i'd love to see your set up just to get an idea of what it would look like on mine..how much the sportlines run you?

I got my sportlines for $240 or something like that off eBay. Eibach themselves sell a camber kit and thats which one I got. Unfortunately you gotta have a shop install them unless you have a ball joint press. Regardless you're going to want to get an alignment after a drop + camber kit install. The stealership quoted me about $340 for a front camber kit install and an alignment. They also said they'd have my car all day. Oh well, I think I'm going there tomorrow to schedule an appointment.

Here's some pics though.




Camber Kit will run you about $150 I think. I already forget how much mine was. haha.

^thanks man..all the info is really helping me out, deciding what products to go for, doing a lot of hw on this stuff..love your drop, i think that's exactly what i'm looking for..looks nice, not too low but not 4x4 but i am thinking bout the eibach sportlines, koni yellows, then camber kit either ingalls or eibach..am i missing anything else?? btw love the ADRs looks good on our black acks
