Default eibach springs

i noticed on the sharkracing site that these springs lowered your car 35mm. this doesn't seem that too significant of a drop to me. anyone know what 35mm converts to in inches? thanks <img src=/images/forums/snitz/smile.gif width=15 height=15 border=0>

The drop on these springs is not one of the biggest. However the stiffness you get out of eibachs are incredible. I have been running them on my car for over a year now, and alls I can say is the ride handling is tight! I recommend these springs to anyone that is considering buying them. They are well worth the money and you will notice a big difference when driving!<img src=/images/forums/snitz/thumbup.gif width=25 height=18 border=0>

Eibachs have the lowest drop on the market for the Tib so if it is looks you are going for and you want the lowest ride possible these are not the right springs for you.

If it it is performance you want and exceptional ride quality then Eibachs will be the best choice around.

Does anyone have a pic of a Tib with Eibach's on it? I'd like to know how it looks not what it "says" it will drop it.

I love my eibachs and wouldn't use anything else. There's others on the market now with lower drops but I didn't wanna scarafice a niec ride. H&R has some out now, they're nice springs, might wanna check those out. Ihave the only lowered tiburon when I'm from and I get people talking about it all the time. Go with the eibachs! <img src=/images/forums/snitz/thumbup.gif width=25 height=18 border=0>

Looks nice.<img src=/images/forums/snitz/thumbup.gif width=25 height=18 border=0> Would you say that the outside diameter of your tires are the same as the outer diameter of the stock tires. I want some performance springs but I want the least amount of drop as possible. Something like 3/4 to 1" would be perfect but I don't think that exists.<img src=/images/forums/snitz/disapprove.gif width=15 height=15 border=0>

ok the stock tires, and rims with 205/40/17 are almost identical in diameter. So what you see in the pic is the result of the springs on 17's. I have never rubbed, and I am still running on my stock shocks.<img src=/images/forums/snitz/laugh.gif width=15 height=31 border=0>
