Eibach Pro-Kit Springs *US Spec*

[supremepower]

Sakhir F80 dropped on Eibach's

Title should be changed, as there a re no "US-spec" Eibach springs pre-se.

If I understood correctly, US and Euro have the exact same sepcs.

Ordered my set from Supreme Power today along with some spacers, can't wait to get them installed

Mad respect for Eibach. And it seems ride quality seems the same or slightly different than stock, which is a plus (don't want them too stiff). But IMO that is a tad too mild of a drop in the rear relative to front. I think for me 1.0" F and .4-.5" rear would be ideal. Either way, props to Eibach and Supreme Power! Looks like there are many happy customers

Thanks for the compliment!

Below are pics of 18" lowered with 15mm/12mm spacer combo per member request!

Honestly, the rear looks no lower than stock. Maybe it's just the pics

5mm is not much of a drop. But I don't find the F8X needs more than that in the rear.

do most think the front has enough drop with this kit?...so this is closest to OEM springs?...leaning towards this kit.

I think the front is enough drop personally. I live in Orange County and never scraped anything yet with the ramps they have here. If it were to go any lower, might have some issues. But if u are looking for something lower, these aren't for you. The drive though is just like stock tho even with spacers. That's the selling point of these

+1 to everything said here. Very happy with my decision. I think the drop looks great, especially in person. I personally didn't want to worry about bottoming out with a full load, and/or scraping every driveway/speed bump. My wife and I can't tell a difference compared to stock. And plus, can't beat the price @ supremepower right now

Here's a pre-drop pic of front:

I would say 5mm is almost no drop. And that's fine, if that's what it is. But some of these pictures almost make it look as though the rear is higher than stock. it's probably just the change in rake messing with my eyes, but it looks high

I feel the same way about the rear, i swear my car stock is lower in the back then some of the pics i've seen with the pro-kit installed.

In person, the rear gap looks tighter than in pics. It is almost identical to stock but the front gap is now more balanced; not entirely closed but even with the gap in the rear.

The drop is perfect for my needs of everyday drive-ability without scraping. Aesthetically, I could probably go another 1-2mm front and rear and be happy but it is not worth the clearance trade-off for me.

On my snow tires (shorter sidewall than my summer tires) I scrape pulling into my garage but not in the traditional sense. My driveway is very steep so the transition at the top from steep grade to flat scrapes something under the car near the center of the car (exhaust maybe?). It is a rather slight scrape but any lower and I might not be able to comfortably pull in to the garage.

Thanks Broham

Installed these over the weekend and they ride like OEM. Only have a day on these and wondering if the fronts will settle at all? Still seems the front is a hair higher than the rear?

[Inprogress]

Here's a quick pic of mine after springs and spacers were installed, i'll try to take better pics in a day or so...I wish it was a hair lower in the front but otherwise im extremely happy with everything. Justin supremepower gave me a badass deal on the springs + spacers

[xrc]

Looks like my MG F80, ride is great although somewhat feel slightly lower in the front would be ideal. Anyone else?
