eibach is actually made in Corona CA, I believe they do import a few itmes still, but they do allmost everything inhouse. It is an amazing place. They do all the own QC in house. About the only thing they sub out is the powder coating and the name stamp on the springs.

Most of the springs sold in the United States are made about 100 feet from my desk in Corona, California.

Tein Warranty-one year
Eibach Warranty-million miles

We supply almost all of the oe's and a ton of the aftermarket tuners.

Let me know if you guys have any questions.

Ryan

We moved powdercoating in house two months ago and have always done all the stamping here

We are the only suspension company in the United States that does sales, R&D, warehouse and manufacturing at one location.

Eibach makes awesome springs.

I have the Pro-Kit (1.3” Drop Approx.) and I love them. It’s not as low as I wanted, but the ride quality is suburb. It’s a little bit stiffer than stock, which I like and it takes corners very well.

I would definitely recommend Eibach for springs.

vtecvoodoo: Back when I bought my springs, I had them installed at a local shop. They installed a front camber kit saying that it wouldn't align right without it. I did not want a camber kit on my car, especially a Napa one, and it wasn't even necessary. I called InlineFour, the shop that I bought the springs from and they told me that it wasn't required. He told me if I got the Sportline, I may need it. If I was to get the Sportline kit, would I need the camber kit?

I had sportlines for almost a year and had no problem (i'm on full coilovers now). Of course I had the car aligned right after installation.

However, do remember that the front wheel fenders on our cars are designed bigger to allow the front tires more room to turn. What generally happens is that many people complain that the front looks uneven (and higher than the rear). In truth, Eibach springs deliver exactly what they advertise. A 1.7" all around drop is an even all around drop even if it looks weird on the 94-01 Integras.

I think the 94-01 Integra Eibach Sportlines should have been 2.0" in the front and 1.7-1.8" in the rear. I'm sure it might not match the performance factor of the even 1.7" drop but I know it would sell more since the car will look better. Besides, Eibach springs are great and they won't **** like H&Rs (race) and Neuspeeds.

I had Sportlines on my 91 hatch and on my 94 Accord...awesome springs,nice drop, rear springs were a little noisy on both cars running high mileage OEM shocks though.I was able to align the Accord without a camber kit but it was very close to being out of spec.Tein S Tech are too soft from what I hear.Just my .02 worth.
