Re: anyone used have the eibach pro-kit?

I love my Eibach Pro-Kit! Of course, the day I installed I also installed all new suspension and Bilstein shocks/struts - but I'm very pleased. Here's a link to my photobucket, can see pics there:

I've used the Eibach ProKit on a few different cars and have always liked it - It stiffens the ride/handling up some over stock, but it doesn't bounce all over the place like the Sportlines do.

Prokit 1'' drop.



Big difference to handling and not so big the the hardness

I have Pro-kit springs on the IROC with KYB agx adjustable shocks/struts. Makes the ride pretty harsh, but the handling is much better! Worst thing about it is cattle gaurds feel like they are killing the car. (I have learned to go over them at an angle, around 2 mph or so.)

I'm sitting on sportlines, no bounce, no rubbing, no issues whatsoever even with MN potholes/ruts.

Re: anyone used have the eibach pro-kit?

thanks everyone! thats some really good looking rides. i think im going with the prokit after seeing these pic's. i already have kyb struts and shocks and a adjustable panhard bar so i think all i need is the springs.
