ANY tire or undercarriage rubbing whatsoever?
No rear camber kit?
Who installed it?


Thanks again!
No rubbing whatsoever. No problems, yet at least, with speed bumps either. No rear camber kit. My alignment is just outside of specs and close enough for me. As long as toe is in spec, I'm not worried about it. Installation was by a local shop here in MD. Seemed like a much easier and straightforward installation than other cars I have owned.

throw up some of those pictures
with only having skimmed the thread - you don't need a camber kit for springs; everything should come into alignment. the drop isn't >2 inches. just make sure your toe's perfect, and you won't see any uneven tire wear, etc.

Sorry guys. I will try to get pics up soon. The drop is a lot like Terry's pic, but I have different stock 18's and I'm using 15mm spacers all around.

much improved flushness with the spacers? That's exactly what I was thinking of doing at the time of the Eibach install. Why 15mm all around and not something slightly staggered?

It's definitely much improved. I think you can go bigger than 15mm, especially in the front. I didn't want to have any vibration or rubbing issues so I stayed conservative, just like I did by using the Eibach pro kit rather than something more aggressive.

This may be a dumb question, but would it be necessary to switch back to the stock springs during the winter months (northeast snow), or just avoid crashing through snow before it's plowed?

Thanks! Sorry to jack an "older" thread, but I didn't think this deemed its own new thread.
