Eibach springs have a million mile warranty. If the spring is actually defective Eibach will replace it for you.

If you need new struts we have KONI or TOKICO on the website.

We offer a B&G spring/shock package that is a little firmer than stock but not too stiff. It's a very reasonably priced setup also.

i agree, the B&G package is a little firmer yet rides very comfortable. it has also given a great increase in handling, minimal body roll. it lowers the front down to about 2 fingers and the rear flush, which is a level drop.
