Achieving more than 1" of drop with Eibach pro kit?
 
Hey guys,

I've got the eibach pro kit on my car. Ever since I got the car, I installed them and now I'm looking to drop the car a bit more without having to go and buy coilovers since I don't need them as the car is for looks mainly. However, if there's no other way of dropping more than that on the springs then I don't mind getting coilovers but I thought why not just ask for a better and faster solution to this?

Is there any way to drop the car a bit more other than risking it like cutting the coil/spring or something like that?

No..

You can replace them with Eibach Sportlines. That would be cheaper than getting coilovers.

Sport lines as said or Ground Control front plates and Stance LCAs but by then may as well go coils...

Yeah thought of doing these in another time, coilovers, LCAs and front plates.

You might want to consider the H&R Super Sport springs, they lower the car 1.2 in the front, and 1.4 in the rear, and they ride pretty well too!

Saw them too but im kinda limited to what we have here in Dubai as shipping for such things is a lot.

You can get H&R from MSW in Al Quos.

Yeah went to them and they were asking for 1,600. Not an issue but I'd double that and just get BC coilovers or something.

Buy Eibach Sportline. Install. Sell used Prokit for good price.

Call Tensai in abu dhabi, the have BC's for a decent price and usually stock them.

I saw couple on their shelf 2 months ago but not 100% sure they were 86 versions

That's what all of them recommended and it's negotiable, might go that way.

Suwaidi I heard about this garage, it's in Abu Dhabi though and I'm from UAQ, might just call them and see if they have it in stock and just have someone get it from them since with springs I can't adjust height and I'd wanna do that on different wheel setups. I'm a friend of m7md el sammach btw :D
