View Full Version : Eibachs Are In
And performing flawlessly!! Many pros to these springs with only one con. Although I dont have pics (see TAF's) the new ride height is awesome. I already have the swaybar and this car corners like a camaro! It handles the bumps just like the stock springs and braking is more pleasurable now due to minimal nose dive. I drove around for about 20 miles and only found one thing I dont like about them. When rounding a corner that is bumpy, the car handles great, but kind of throws you around in the seat a little. So all in all Im very pleased and consider it money well spent. I had the dealer install them because I wont touch front springs anymore (spring compressor broke on me years ago and almost took off my head). Install cost was $140. So look at it this way, for $300 you get a great new stance, awesome cornering and are actually saving money compared to other cars because we can lower the rear by loosening one bolt.

Sweet! I've been thinking about doing it my MM too. with all the positive comments I just might have to.
I'll let the dealership do mine too! I saw a spring compressor give out a put a hole in a cynder block wall one time.

Eat more Krispy Kreme doughnuts...and THAT^^^will go away.:lol:
Glad you like them Zack. It may be too sporty for some, but...I NEVER thought this size/weight of car could handle like it does now.

^^^Ditto what Zack (a man to be respected) and Todd (a man to be, um, uh, well we'll just leave it that he is a man) said^^^
Today I did the Eibachs, rear sway bar, and cross drilled rotors and carbon fiber brake pads on the rear. It was Christmas in July! Hopefully in the next week or so I will be installing the shortys headers, x-pipe, hi-flow cats, and new front rotors.
The springs and sway bar make a great addition to the car. WARNING: You will definitely lose some of the "floaty" LSC feel (which was fine with me). In exchange, you will get a car that handles flat in hard corners and has no "nose dive" on hard braking. Get these parts and get 'em installed! You won't be sorry.
