cheap eibach pro kit

saw this while browsing on ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1872905261

this is one heck of a buy if someone gets it. it usually runs for a lot more than 100 bucks. someone better grab it.

I looked at his other auctions to see if he has a set for our 3.2's and he doesn't. Man I really wish I could pick up a set of $99 Eibach springs.

Exclamation CHECK THE EIBACH PART NUMBER!!!

Check the Eibach part number @ Eibach.com . I believe our cars take 4010.140, not 4028140. I think this guy is hiding that fact. Good luck! I have the Eibach Prokits and love them.

i doubt they fit the same. the 2.5's has a more "aggressive" suspension system. and also the 3.2 is heavier than the 2.5's so there might be problems.

yah lowering the car is definately a plus, the handling is so much better. add the GAB strut bar with it and it's like a whole new car.

hey, how much heavier is the 3.2 than the 2.5??? i remember reading on this forum..or another forum that if you buy springs for our car (made for the accord), our cars would settle in more lower b/c of our cars weight......compared to the light accord. now that i found out 3.2 is heavier than the 2.5, anybody with a 3.2 who buys accord springs will be SUPER low. am i correct? is this making sense to any of you all or did i loose you? im just curious b/c i might get teins for my car made for the accord and i have a 2.5 so.......

ok..for all the 3.2TL owners out there.. can anyone recommend what springs I need to get to lower my car properly..?
I have a 1996 3.2TL premium, and I want to lower it so I can have a snug fit with my 18" rims, and any suggestions on what a fair asking price is for a set of four, would be greatly appreciated. I searched on this site, and only eibach pro series have been suggested, any opinions?? thanks

well the eibachs have been the most tested in this forum. a bunch of us has the pro kit or the sportline. eibach spings are great quality and gives the car a nice ride. other options include a bunch of no name brands. you might want to take a look at coilovers too if you're worried about the right height for those 18 inch wheels. but ground control uses eibach springs too. so either way you won't lose with eibachs. but if you really really wanna bling bling it, you can go for the tiens. yah those will set you back a couple g's. hmmm were they tiens or zeals? i forgot, i'm pretty sure they're tiens.
