I Just Purchased Eibach Pro Kit For My 02 Gt Coupe The Front Lowered A Full Inch But I Barely Got A Half Out Of The Back It Would Be Very Helpful If I Could Get The Rear Spring Numbers From Someone Who Has The Same Kit Installed There’s Just No Way These Can Be Right

Thanks In Advance

How long have the springs been on the car? It takes a couple weeks for them to fully settle, especially in the back where there is hardly any weight.

I originally had the pro-kit but I took them out and installed the sportlines.
Pro-kit just isn't enough of a drop. you will notice that compared to stock,
there is not that much of a difference. Give the back springs some time
to settle. Good luck with them.

Give it a week or two and always have a fulltank of gas, it helps put some weight at the back while breaking it in

Springs definately need time to fully settle. From what I have heard, it can take up to a month or two to get the full advertised drop.

How long did you keep your pro kit on before you changed it out? I have the pro kit on my vert and got a 1.5" drop. There's a big difference compared to stock. It took almost a month for mine to setttle in. Unless your going for the slammed look, I think the pro kit is the perfect drop for my taste.

Hey guys I have a question,
I'm looking to lower my car and was going to go with the eibach pro kit as well. When you guys lowered it, did you lose any comfort??? Did you have to get the CC plates?

Thanks,
amy

I don't have my suspension stuff on yet but you will most likely feel a definate ride difference. It will be a bit stiffer and you will should feel more bumps and such but from what I have heard it isn't too bad. Good luck.

C/C plates should not be needed but if you want to be able to allign the car yourself and make adjustments then they make it easier.

No cc plates and the ride is firm but not harsh. Big improvement over stock set up. I did change my shocks/struts to mach 1 tokicos as well.
