i saw a car with eibach pro-kit springs and his car looked low. but it says taht it only lowers it 1.3 inches..i have progress springs and its suppose to drop the car 1.5 inches but it looks higher than the eibachs. how much of a gap should i have with a 1.5 inch drop? i have a 5th gen BTW. thanks

 

I've got Tein S-Tech springs (love them) and theres about a "ricer" measurement of 1&1/2 fingers in the front and 1 finger in the rear. I'm thinking that the eibach are relitively the same.

 

wait a sec, u telling us that you have eibachs in front and progress in rear??? wtf is that???

You can do that...belive it or not

 

I have eibach pro kits and i can barely fit a finger to check my tire treads.

ok, i see the point if u want higher spring rates that a different manufacturer would have, but still, seems kind of ridiculous to me... but whatever floats your boat man~

 

I think that he said he has progress springs all around. He saw a diifferent car with eibachs and just wanted to compare the drops on them.

oh ok, in that case, my bad! uhmmm... the differences in drop/ride height is probably due to spring rates.. the ones that eibach sends are not generally the stiffest, my gc's are slightly stiffer than the ones they send u, i'm not sure about progress, but progress are supposed to be pretty stiff from what i hear... anyway, sorry for al that confusion and ****... gl

 

Anyone know if the Tien S-Techs will fit a 97 with 18s and 225/40s
I cant decide between Tien and Eibach, I think tien may drop a little
more than eibach??? It just doesnt seem like there is 1.3-1.5 inches
in btwn my tire and wheel well.

 

You idiot you spelled tein wrong, lay the pipe down.

 

does anyone know how low i have to drop my car in order to make them clean with my stock rims for my 01 lude?

 

Probly around 2-2.5 inches

 

kool...thanks

 

im on my facotry wheels and i can fit 2 fingers in the back and front is like 2 1/2 fingers. and on their site it says that it lowers it 1.5 inches. damn i wnat it a little lower!
