dude, your springs will settle after you cut em. its gonna be lower than you want. you will ruin them. spring steel has to be hot when its cut. you could call eibach and bit@h and complain until they resolve the issue. they are gonna tell you the same thing we've been trying to.

At the moment, I won't be cutting the springs. Not until I get new tires. Current tires have 90% tread left, didn't see a point to waste money on new tires. So gonna keep it as it. to see if it sets a bit. Should be quite sometime.

^ for my H&R springs, it took about a good couple of months to to hit me like "whoa, it's low" point. give it a good 2 months.


but then again, you're gonna be itching to go lower... that's the curse of the springs

I have used Eibachs Pro kits before in two of my setups. Tho they are good quality they do not lower very much..at least in the apps I used them in. They always dropped maybe around an 1".

I would not cut the springs either. Why didn't you look at the drop specs before purchasing?

I did look at the spec's 1" drop (all around) was what I wanted. But when installed, the rear dropped more than the front..
