Speak to Dave at extention 103.

I bought Eibach springs 1.5 in front and 1.0 in the rear. They were here 2 days after I ordered them and I cam currently awaiting a jic rear strut tower rod.
I already have the front.

Does anyone know if arospeed is a good company to buy my lowering springs through?, and do you think these are a set of 4, 2, or 1? $129.95 seems a little cheap seeing as how the eibach springs 1.6" drop front and back are $230.00?

What I do know is that Eibach is one of the leading manufacturers of springs.

From what I have read they sell more springs globally than any other brand.

I've looked far and wide for springs with more drop than the eibach, 1.6 & 1.0. None so far.

Some guy was replacing his stock springs with some Eibach springs from checkers which were suppose to lower the car 1". After looking at his stock springs and looking at the Eibach springs he should of stayed with his stock springs, they looked way more stiffer than the Eibach springs. IMO I wouldnt buy those Eibach springs they look weak, their deffintly not stronger than the stock ones on the supra.

You are the only person I have heard say anything negative about Eibach.

They aren't supposed to be the same gauge as the stock springs. There is less spring in a good way. I just don't happen to have the words or the time to explain it.

But your'e the first.

Sooooo......you base your opinion entirely on LOOKS.

I had an 18 year old girlfriend once that was a Playboy magazine candidate. This girl was sooo good LOOKING.

But LOOKS were deceiving, as she was a bit loony, which is why she did not get into the magazine.

Here's what works for me.

Research, analyse, learn,..... works every time.

if you want a 2.0"+ drop then you should get the bilstein struts since i think they have an adjustable perch

redmaro · 04-23-2007, 04:17 PM

I still wouldnt buy them, you can almost compress them with your hands. LOL
