I have Pro-Kit. The drop is, like they say, about an inch. Eibach says any more than that will lose the vertical clearance you need for spring compression and extension. That is, the Sportlines are more cosmetic than performance. But .75 inches ain't much more of a drop. So if you want to slam it, get coilovers, if you want to corner, get the Pro-Kit.

where did you get that about Sporslines? the actual brochure for Eibach said the Sportslines were more performance geared than the pro-kit and not ass recommended for daily-drivers?
it's not like there a 4" drop where keeping the handling could be a little risky with the spring set-up --------------------  |

Defninitely need alignment unless you want your tires to look hella funny in 3,000 miles. The alignment shop will probably tell you if they can successfully align you. If not, you need the kit.

I have the sportlines/kyb's and have stock 15" gt wheels.... The ride is great, its a little bounce or hard somtimes but not bad ..... Ive only bottomed out once, when i had me my pop's an bro in the car.. and i went to quick over the tall-bump... You have to just go real slow over the bump's and over the humps your fine. |
