I installed B&G S2 springs on an EK sedan because I got a helluva deal on them and some of the Euro tuner crowd likes them. They advertise a 1.75 drop front and rear and are progressive. I installed brand new Eibach Pro Damper struts at the same time and didn't cut any of the supplied Eibach bump stops. Turns out the front is hella low and the rear sits about an inch higher. Front rides really well but the rear is super stiff and harsh. I've had Eibach Pro Kit and Sportlines,Skunk2,and H&R race before and the H&R race on Tokico blues rode much better than this. Wondering if I should trim the rear bump stops,if I can't get a better ride in the rear I'll probably go back to the Pro Kit. Springs and struts are just under a year old and the car isn't driven often or very aggressively.

Ended up trimming my bumpstops 30mm or about 1.25 inches and made a night and day difference. Pro Kit calls for 25mm and Sportlines 35 and these springs are about in the middle so chose 30mm. The Eibach Pro Damper set I bought said do not cut,but if you buy the springs it says to do so,so it's really your call. Much quieter in the rear and I'm not gritting my teeth every time I hit a bump now. I'd say this setup feels just slightly more aggressive than the Pro Kit on OEM shocks.
