Maybe the first eibachs that came out for the 300's were crap and they have greatly improved thier product?. My neighbor has the pro kit with 22's and I have the sportsline with 20's and neither of us has had a problem with them. I mean I have never bottomed out or anything. It did take about 2 weeks for the back to settle down. Heck I had 5 people in my car last week and the 3 that were in the back were saying how nice the ride was!!

How much should i expect to pay for the KW V2's and installation?
KW's can be gotten in the low $1400. Installation can vary a lot. 4 hours for the install is probably realistic. Or $360 at a $90 shop rate.
But then things get a little squirrelly after the initial install. First, the height may not be quite right immediately after the install. You need to make sure the shop is ready to rework the install to get the height correct on all four corners without extra charge.
Then there is the question when to align the car. It will take about 30 days for the car's spring to settle, about 1/4" to 1/2". Any alignments in the first 30 days will probably have to be redone. Alignments can run around $70 for 18" wheels, and maybe $20 more for 20" and above wheels.
The other issue is the car height will also likely get out of whack as the car settles over the first 30 days. Each wheel will settle differently. After 30 days one wheel/spring might settle 1/4" and another 3/8 or 1/2". So you have decide if you want to readjust the height. The fronts are easy to do yourself. The rears are tough and may require a return to the shop who did the install. If you readjust the height, you will likely need another alignment.
hey those bags are they the kind you just slip over the shocks?? I remember watching tv one day I think it was discovery and they were talking about lowriders. they showed one company cant remember the name they had bags that just slid over the shock where the spring would go in the front and the back the just had the bags go where the springs would usually go. It that this set up guys have?
