I was just curious how many people have had their springs see
snow, and salt. Mine were installed back in December 03, and they
still look new. They springs have never seen snow, and only
rain maybe 3-4 months a year.

No rust. Installed 07/03. No salt diet (not driven in winter months). The only rust i have is a surface scratch on a few spots.

No snow or salt touched mine yet.

Mine are still in good condition.

my eibach which are bout 4 yrs old have no rust other then where the coils hit. i purposly go driving in the snow all the time and seen lots of salt. nothin like get sprayed by a salt truck and getting ur paint scratched to hell.

dirty but u get the idea.


my stockers were about the same when i took them off.


im not sure if ur talking about oem or aftermarket. its seems to me the that eibachs have a very good paint job.


SHAWN do those rubber sleeves come on ur cl stock? seems like a good idea. my rear eibachs clank all the time on big bumps.

So is it safe to say that mainly East Coasters where it snows, are the ones that are experiencing these quality issues with Comptech?
