i have neuspeeds sport springs on. they are very similar to the eibachs, but you don't get as much of that noise when you hit a bump.
a lot of people think that the ride is very stiff, but i don't think it's too bad, i can live with it for a daily driver.

Thanks for reply man, but how much drop do you get from the neuspeed springs.and one more thing do you have camber kits on your car, and does the control arms touch the body.

the drop is 1.75" it pretty much got rid of wheel well gap. yea, i got ingalls front camber kit, and i had the allignment shop put washers on the back. my control arm does not touch the body.

R U sure they alligned it properly, do you still get tire wear in the front.

yea, before i was showing belts on the inside, and still had good tread on the outside of the tire. now it's really even. the allignment shop i took it to does all kinds of stuff with camber kts, and i'm pretty sure they did a really nice job. still no control arm problem.

i had them on stock shocks, and some of the coils banged together when i went over a bump. this made a very loud noise. a lot of people do like the eibach's though, and i think it would be better if you had them installed on some aftermarket shocks.

There isn't anything wrong with the eibach springs, but the coils are really close and tends to touch and make clunking noises, if you dont have some good aftermarket shocks, like tokicos.
