I am going to look at a set tonight...if the rubber is as good as the guy says, I will be buying them. FINALLY be able to lower the 3.2! (had the springs for almost 2 years now but the 18's I had won't fit once it's lowered! They barely fit NOW!)

:-D

Eibach Pro's, only 1.2" drop, but should fill wheel well nicely.

Thanks guys
Too bad the guy sold them already.
Next time I find a set I'll just pick them up without worry about it fitting.

How much morpheus for the set? please include shipping
I'm in NYC.

Planning on it, but at 230000 KMS, I am sure they won't last much longer after I change the springs. Probably just get some konis when that happens.

That's almost no drop at all. 1.2"??? I'm confused....why do you think that 18's wouldn't fit with such a basic drop?

I've also got a 3.2 and I'm gonna lower it 2" . I intend to put 18's regardless of how low it is.

Eibach's handling is well....simply put.... crap. I've used them before and wasn't impressed. I personally would stay away from Eibachs but that just my opinion. Good luck with em.

The rims I have are only 45 offset. With the wider new tires, it rubs NOW when people sit in the back. Gonna get fenders rolled wither way to allow for even wider tires, but in any rght I need to get new rims to make it fit properly.
