well i just purchased a set of eibach sportlines. I used to have skunk2 coilovers, they were so horrible i had to get koni yellows and am having problems with the set up ( the ride sucks and now the set is squeaking like a MOFO) by the way.. install for the front was a bitch...alot of fabricating the old shocks and the konis...anyways so i just bought some Sportlines..i was wondering if anyone have tried these springs and if they give a good ride and comfort? I also got 18s so i was wondering if you know if they will clear in the rear cause i know that the rear drops lower than the front...holla back

I have them, and wish that I didn't. They blow your shocks, regardless of which ones you have. But yeah, they will be fine in the rear. Just stay near stock specs. They give the car a nice and level look, like it should look.

I have mine with 18's and really like them. I Have had them on for about 12xxx miles and no problems, i just wish it was dropped a little more up front. The ride isnt exactly like a caddy, but what do you expect. I recommend them.

These are the same springs that TRD slaps their name on if you are having problems with your springs, you probably did a half-assed job by only replacing the springs and not the shocks. Get the job done correctly the first time around and you wont have problems later
