Re: Dropped 01 Eibach Sportline 17's

very very nice. looks perfect. that drop is more than perfect actually. i like when theres just a bit of wheel well around it just like that. looks kind of like stock ....but way better.

when its too low and you see no gap over the tires i just dont really like it. if i was going to drop my car (cant because of yearly weather) thats exactly the look id go for.

Re: Dropped 01 Eibach Sportline 17's

well i agree with both of you actually. On some cars, BMW, some acuras...no gap at all looks proper (mostly cause thats what its made for and i know enough about cars to know when a car is riding on modded suspension). I would like to say though the eibach sportline drop is just about the perfect drop for what i want. Its not to low, i did not have to change my driving at all and its looks way better.

At first i thought well....1.4 inches...come on, will i REALLY be able to notice the difference. YES! Noticed right off the bat. INSTALLATION was pretty straight forward, thanks for DIY write-ups, took all day cause i did it right and lubed everything up and torqued everything down to exact specs (plus had to make 2 beer runs). but thanks for the comments boys.

I was going to pick up the prokit but those sportlines look good. Post some more pics after they settle, car looks good man.

Untuned- You really dont think you could drop 1.4" in cow town? I know a few oilers rockin a 2" drop year round, no lip kits though.
Dont go and get all touchy just curious.
