comptech, eibach and h&r sport springs
hey guys,
ive narrowed it down to either comptech or eibach springs or hr sport. what i want to know is for you guys that have the eibach how do you like it. i hardly see anyone talking bout the eibach springs.
*
another question is which ones lower your car more the eibach or the hr sport. cause the eibach ones i saw lowered the car a lot i was only able to fit one finger in the wheel gap... im lookin for a 2- 2.25 finger gap. let me know your opinions..!!

hey legend i don't have the eibachs but i have the h&r sports. from what i remember when i was lowering my car is that the eibach springs you would need a camber kit b/c of the drop and i'm pretty sure you can't fit ur finger in there. the h&r sports to me are perfect i have them with the stock shocks and you can get about 1-2 fingers. if your looking for a 2-2.25 finger gap i would look at the h&r oe springs. i'm saying this b/c i'm asumming your keeping the stock shocks? if you plan on getting new shocks like koni adjustable so u can do how you like.
you can also search its been discussed many times.

I never rode on the comptech springs. However I probably swapped my springs more times then others here. I went 200 miles on the stock springs. I then swapped them with my 3yr old set of eibach pros 1.75 drop. I guess from driving the tl for 200 miles i got used to the ride. After having them in for a week I had to yank them back out. The ride was very harsh, every little bump in the road i felt. I then decided go back to stock. After 4000 miles I couldn't deal with the 4x4 look. I said what the hell I'll learn to live with the rough ride. So I then reinstalled the eibachs. A few days later someone posted in this forum selling H&R sports. I grabbed them!! They arrived today at my shop. As soon as they arrived I started the procedure all over again. I yanked the eibachs back out and installed a like new set of H&R sports. WOW!!! I've been driving around most of the day (94miles) I love them! The ride is much better, they do give a slight bounce but not a jolt like the eibachs did. My car was slightly lower with the eibachs then the sports. As of right now my car has a little bit of a raked look then sagging in the a55 with the eibachs. That might be from the eibachs being 3yrs old.
Hope this kinda helps with your decisions...

I have comptechs paired with tokico illuminas and the ride is great, obviously stiffer than stock, but still very comfortable. My gap is about 3 fingers all around, the back is slightly higher up, but not much. I've never rode on eibach pro kits, so I couldn't say for sure, but I don't really like the drop with them, always seems like the front of the car is higher than the rear if that makes sense. Here's a pic of my drop, although it's not a TL, the springs are exactly the same so the drop should be similar:
