I picked up the car yesterday evening after getting Eibach 350's installed. Nice drop with my 19" wheels. The progressive rate springs actually reduce some low speed harshness w/19's (versus original sport package suspension). I'm doing a road trip today and returning tomorrow evening, so after that I will report more. I expect to cover about 350 miles in the 2 days.
How are you liking the ride? I am contemplating buying these...
The ride is acceptable, I've put over 400 miles on the springs. Low speed harshness is slightly reduced versus the stock sport suspension springs probably due to progressive rates of Eibachs. I'm glad I have the firmer sport suspension shocks because on big bumps I can feel the shocks working pretty hard to control rebound. I've only bottomed out once that I noticed at the front end but I was going very fast on a bumpy windy road. Springs are quiet, no clunking. IMO going lower just means less suspension travel which might be sketchy, but the lower springs will be stiffer to minimize bottoming.
Handling is a bit firmer and flatter too. Alignment is spot on, car tracks like a Mercedes at 80-100 mph.
if you are going to istall them yourself then its worth it. if you are gonna pay 3-400 bucks for installation, get some coil overs. I like my Eibachs, the ride is not far from stock and improves handling some... but i am in the market for some coil overs
Are you by any chance work in Santa Clara? I think I spotted your parked car but not sure if it was yours. The same SGM with the same wheels I think. I noticed the silver trim of the wheels for sure.
