Sportline Options

[drumbum]

Anyone have any complaints on the eibach sportline spring set?

Ive been reading reviews from many websites many on different cars about always bottoming out on speed bumps, and trying to avoid bumpy roads. I like the look of the sportlines but does anyone on here that has them notice a bad ride quality or any problems for everyday use??

Also is kyb gr2 front and rear struts my best bet or are there other choices because on one review the guy said he blew those at about 10,000 miles with the sportlines???

many people on here have this setup, so i was wondering if this would be a good purchase for my car for lowering it. And of the people that have this setup how many miles have you run on them without any problems?

Thanks

Look up flyinglizard, he has Megan springs. However, it seems that the stiffer the spring, the less the spring will actually compress...what I'm saying is, Megan springs are so stiff that they don't really lower all that much. He also says the ride is terrible.

RocketScott, what makes you want to get the Pro Kit springs?

I'm just nervous I guess. The ride feels better than it did but it's hard to compare since all my struts were blown and strut mounts shot. It had so many rattles too. With my car being a '94 the sound deadening isn't as good as the newer cars so I hear it if anything is out. I really like the look though. I think it looks way better than it did since I put the 17s on. It doesn't look too low. They were able to get the camber within spec on the back without the camber kit but I still think it leans a little too much. I'll probably let the springs settle in and take it back in a few months to have it aligned again. I'll just put the camber kit in myself before I take it in. They want too much to do it for me.


We've got two threads going on this topic right now. I had been meaning to add everything up that I bought and do a write up. I bought all new mounts and insulators. The only thing I reused from the originals was the top cap on the front springs. With all that extra stuff I spent $750. I could have just spent an extra $100 and got the Megan's. I started buying stuff before I realised how much it was all going to add up to. The struts themselves were only around $45 each but by the time I got mounts, boots/bumpstops, insulators, and springs the cost shot up quickly. I'll know next time.
