I have a 98 cobra with the wrong eibach pro-kit springs on it now they are for the coupe, doesn't look bad but the rear sits a tad bit lower than the front, Thinking about going with different springs but don't know if I want the correct eibach pro kit for my car which may raise it too much or a different kit, anyone got pictures of there convertible with lowering springs

He could, but even if he does, it's not going to help you out a lot. There are so many variances, variables and inconsistencies in each spring that would make each car sit differently it's hardly worth putting concrete numbers to it. Just know, that it will make your ride height lower. If worse comes to worse, you could always fine tune the ones you've got by either shimming the back, or cutting half a coil from the front. From the look of your pic a set of Air Bags out back would clear things right up and is a cheap fix. That's what I'd do.

mine is in my sig link...i have the pro kit for the vert...i like it, but i also like how yours sits. just get some front coilovers and then you can have a better ride with alot of adjustability for between $125 and $150 depending on who makes it...i also like the air bag idea!

Hey thanks for the help, does anyone have some pics from a good side view up close, It looks like the front sits about the same on my car as the guys with the correct eibach pro kit convertible springs, but the rear on my car is needs to be lifted a little, thought about ordering the correct kit for my car and just installing the rear springs out of the kit
