Anyone know of any lowering springs for the 92-96 ES other than Eibach, I have eibach on my car right now but I would like to go a little lower, and does anyone know if lowering springs for a camry will work on the ES my cousin and me took one of my eibach springs for the ES and compared it to a sprint spring for the camry and it was identical , any thoughts or help appreciated, thanks. -lobo-

Question

Lobo- I was actually just looking at eibach springs. I asked one of the sales people if there's anything else required with them and he said I might want to install the struts at the same time. Do I need new struts if I put in lowering springs? At any rate, I am interested. Ramsee1

It would probably be best to change out your struts since oem struts usually go out faster with lowering springs. Plus if you do this all at one time, you basically hit two birds with one stone...that way you don't spend the extra money for strut installation down the road.
