Should I go with eibach springs?
After a few days of researching about springs, I am leaning towards eibach springs and they are offering a 10% rebate. I only want to drop my car 1-1.5inch and close the wheel gap, but at the sametime I want a smooth ride. Just wanted to get some feed back from people that are riding on eibach springs. I am also open to suggestions. Thank you

I've run A-Spec's, Tein SS's, and now Eibachs.
If you have a 6-speed, don't run them. The rear sags too much or the front is high. I put my A-Spec springs back in the rear to level it out and it looks good now.
Only other gripe I have is my front Eibachs squeek.
I would honestly recommend the H&R's or the Tein S-Tech's over the Eibachs. My .02

The rear doesn't sag with Eibachs...the car sits perfectly level. It's the front fender arches that are cut higher which may give the appearance of the rear sitting lower than the front.
OP, if you want one of the best performing aftermarket springs on the market, get the Eibachs.
I run them with a set of Koni Sport yellow shocks...perfect combo IMO.

Are those the sparkle silver a-spec wheels, kinda hard to tell from the pic on my mointor?? Looks great, have NBP 08 TL-S auto, have thought many times about sparkle silver but have been tossed between those and the chrome look????

^ Thanks....check my sig, all spec info is there. Colour is Gunmetal which was only for the '04 A-Spec wheels.
IIRC the Eibachs and Konis ran me roughly $1400 CAD supplied and installed. Remember I'm in Canada so parts are pricier....well worth it though.
