Eibach Sportline Springs

I am thinking about buying some Eibach Sportline Lowering Springs from DjReaction on here.

1st off...$60 is that a good deal, they have been used 6 months.
2nd he says they give a 1.5" drop all around, is this accurate. Not calling him a liar, just making sure.
3rd I would have to buy new shocks right? What kind would be good with the Eibach Sportline Springs. Where could I get these.
4th Cambers are a must correct? Where can I get these.

Thanks for ANY help any of you give. It is HIGHLY appreciated.

1st off - good deal.
2nd - its like 1.4/1.7 after they settle, i used to have them. good drop
3rd - dont buy new struts, you dont need to.
4th - dont waste ur money on a camber kit, theres not much of a difference. i never experienced uneven tire wear.
5th - i want rep.

edit for spelling

i disagree with u that he wont need new shocks. U will need new shock and it worth it. U just dont have to get some thing expensive like konis yellow. I would reccomend u tokico blues, i heard so many good things about the Sportline+Blues combo. Goodluck

save ur money. unneccessary.....i dont care what anyone says. ride on ur stock struts until they go then do the aftermarket ones. any application thats 2" or lower should be accompanied by new struts.

thanks for the rep by the way

Totally in agreement with getting new struts... Factory crap has different compression ratios for the taller spring... they will blow. Mine lasted a whole month after I installed the Eibach Sportlines... and I am bouncing over bumps in the road. So, if your going to do it right get the tokico blues. Your factory struts may last a year or they might last a whole 2 days.

well, i used to have sportline with stock shock. i wanted to save money at first, but i can't accept the bouncing ride. So i changed to Tokico Blue with sportline. You can actually feel the difference! it is all depends on you that if you want to save money or have better ride.
