Lowering with Eibach

[navadann]

Guys need your opinion on what i am about to do. I want to lower my car. Its a daily driver. My tires are 265/35/R22 102W. I was looking at a few kits. Pedders has a kit for $700 for springs and shocks. Eibach has the same system for $580. The pedders is a 2" drop while the Eibach is a 1.6" drop. After talking to the guy at Eibach he reccomended i check to make sure i would not have any rubbing problems. From your experiences and my tire size above will i be ok with either system. My car is a daily driver and im going simply for the looks. Keep in mind that i will be replacing the front fascia and rear fascia with the grip tuning Kit. Thanx for your advice.

With the 2" drop and your tire size, you're gonna have problems with rubbing on the fenders. I'm using the Eibach's that you listed and I had to roll my front fenders because of rubbing.

And if you plan to go with the Grip Kit, you will be too low. I know a few guys using the grip front fascia and the front sits too low to the ground without any lowering.

Good to know this info. Maybe i should get the Kit first then potentially drop it.
