was about to start a new thread, but I've had the prokit struts/springs on for almost 2 years now, rear passenger started leaking. so looking to replace those probably with kyb agx. has anyone replaced just the rear (keeping eibach springs)? just curious about other's experiences

for OP, I would advise getting some decent gas struts instead :\ heres mine:

Thanks! That's what I thought they were, but couldn't quite tell the size.

I am also considering purchasing a pro kit from tirerack, link below. These pictures are small, do you have larger ones, I am trying to get a sense of just how dropped the car looks.

I am actually not trying to drop that car that much. I know, I want the opposite of what most people want. I actually really do not want to slam it.

I have the eibach pro kit on my 03 Cls with stock struts and they are pretty good not too bumpy. I don't know why but the backsets a little lower than the front. Does anyone know why? they cost me around $200 BTW.

no it is because the eibach pro kit was intended for automatics, not 6 speeds. The 6sp is lighter than autos, hence why the front looks raked on 6 speeds with eibach kit. You may want to look at koni's or something adjustable for front. i learned this the hard way too and always try to discourage 6 speed owners from eibach. i had mine for a few months before i replaced with coilovers.

Yea im still on stock struts getting those would probably help a lot. Any suggestions on struts to go with the eibach springs? Here is my car on the eibach's. I know my tires are thin AF (thanks to big O) makes the wheel gap look bigger.
