The First Eibach 2" Drop....

[brownbrosperf]

IMHO it is to low, I find that during "spirited" driving
with the Pro kit the bump stops are contacting, this ends up unloading the rear on hard turns. I can imagine the sportline is WAY worse. Does look KILLER, but I would rather not wrap it around a tree or telephone pole. And bumpsteer must be HELL. What did you do with the panhard bar?? I imagine the rear wheels are offset quite abit to the drivers side.

No offset is even noticable and the bumpsteer is no worse than before. Cornering and general handling are by far much better than before. I dont even know why I have to repeat this since I already posted it earlier in the thread.

Please dont get pissy, just noting experiences I have had with multiple cars with the pro kit. I would imagine these concerns would be exagerated on a car that is lowered even more. If you look at the angle that the lower control arms are at with the kit you will see what I mean by being concerned with bump steer. With the 1" pro kit drop the control arms are at a upward angle, with a 2" drop it must be even worse. With 19x9 285/35zr19 rear wheels and tires I notice the drivers side tire sticks out alittle past the fender lip, while the passanger is tucked inside, this is because the pass side of the panhard bar is mounted to the body and the drivers side is on the axle, when you lower it without relocating the mounting points, or shortening the bar, it WILL push the axle towards the drivers side. Sorry I had to explain my concerns. Just tryin to help out others.

Eibach Pro Kit...

If someone wants a comparison, i went with the Pro kit and got 18" American Racing Casinos (255/45/18).

The ride is actually quite good but speed bumps need to be respected!
