Eibach Pro Kit

[253325is]

i have a big list of things to do to my car befor bimmerfest and i need springs BAD! i've been looking alittle on what i want but it would help me if you guys gave me some references...

well i want her really low but not too stiff.. my car is a daily driver and it's never been to the track so i dont care for trackable springs i just need a smooth street feel but as low as i can get her.

the "eibach pro kit" lowers front 1.6", rear 1.4 whitch is what i'm looking for exactly... i thnk... because the rear wheel well is lower than the front i wanted it to sit lower in the front than the rear i think it looks better BUT i wanted to ask what you guys thought of the pro kit or even eibach compared to h&r (i dont know crap about springs sorry)

thanks-

I have the pro kit and it's too soft. I'm running bilstein sports and I think the majority of my stiffness is from the shocks. However, If you want stock stiffness the eibachs are the way to go - just make sure you match them with good shocks.

FYI I'll be upgrading to IE3s or H&R in the near future.

I have two cars.... one with the pro kit and one with H&R Race.

I like the race springs, but the pro kit is a nice upgrade from stock. You will get the look you want with the pro kit.

h&r race ftw.

i just picked up the pro kit on a deal, great for a DD, and really helps the look... IMO

I can't get a feel for how low the Eibach Pro Kit is. I am assuming it doesn't totally SLAM it down, right? I want my E30 lower but not oil pan scrape low. Also, how has your tire wear been since you went with the Pro Kit? Is your negative camber really bad? I know this is an old thread but I thought I would continue here instead of starting a new one.

this is next for me, well atleast when am done with the underneath bushing replacement job. Is Tokico shocks worth the search?

hey, i'm not really sure what you're asking but this is what i've found so far i ended up with pro springs just to get a feel but i don't like the way it sits really but thats just me. it was a good upgrade from stock for sure! as for the camber yea i did'nt really notice wear on my tires at all it is just a vary soft kit so don[t plan on taking it to the track or even lane changing quickly feels like a boat. witch is why i am looking to upgrade to an h&r kit soon here... peace-

If you want something low and soft get the kyb's w/ vogtland springs, billy's if you want something a little stiffer

here's a car with the prokit. They are pretty soft. I did take it to a few autox events and competed pretty well in my class with them. *don't mind the asthetics, I tried to fix it, but it was at the point of no return*

Dont mean to thread jack but I plan on getting lowering springs for now and installing them on the stock shocks, until I can afford a decent set of shocks... Has anyone installed lowering springs on stock shocks??
