Eibach Pro Kit or Tanabe NF210?
Not sure which to get. Wanted Eibachs but judging from various pictures...Eibachs don't seem too look much different than stock....although everyone who has them...love them.
From reading all the threads...Tanabes don't go as low as Eibachs in the front....but the drop seems more noticeable without being slammed.
Also, is it true that Tanabes have a more comfortable ride than the Eibachs? Any feedback is much appreciated.
BTW...looking to get 20" Vossen 085's or 082's.

I got the Eibach's pro kit installed recently, need to get wheel alignment, however I don't even feel any difference. If anything it feels like the ride quality is better.. O_O

For those that have them...how does the drop look in person. Only saying that because based on some pics I've seen....the difference from stock seems very slight.
Where as...in soolman32's thread...the tanabes looks lower than eibachs...yet...eibachs are supposed to be lower.

HUGEEE DIFFERENCE!!! no more front wheel gap...
Check out some more pics of the Tanabe's the front gap is still very apparent..
Eibach all the way....
Or tanabach.....Eibach front tanabe rear....optimal settings if you want the comfortable ride with a slightly less than slammed look..

Get the tanabe coilovers, in the long run it's a better decision. If you're still set on Eibach's I'll probably have a set for sell here shortly. I'd definately go Eibach over tanabe springs, the front is the problem, not the rear.
I felt a huge difference with Eibachs in terms of squat and roll over stock, ride quality though didn't seem to suffer at all.

I had Tanabe and loved them. The rear is lower with Tanabe and the front is lower with Eibach. The ride quality and handling will be very similar. Nobody can really credibly recommend one over the other unless they have had both and done a real world comparison on the same car. Just pick one.

While we're on the topic: why is it that everybody has said you don't need to get a front or rear camber kit for the nf210, but a rear camber kit is recommended for the pro kit??? I would imagine if the pro kit drops more in the front then it should need a front camber kit, and vice versa for the pro kit...

Now compare that to this... the rear above is noticably lower then the front. The Eibachs produce a more even look. Just remember the front was the problem for why you're dropping in the first place, don't need to own both to see this. I rest my case your honor.

i just had my eibachs installed recently and am definitely happy with the results. car looks so much cleaner and the stance is perfect. don't really have any scraping, and i can hardly tell any difference in comfort, if there is any, but it does feel a little better on handling.
