Hello all,

I am planning on doing a Sachs PP strut w/ an Eibach Sportline spring combination, and have been reading that drops less than 1.5" do not need roll center correction.

In theory, if the body of the car is lowered any amount, the distance between the roll center & center of gravity will be increased, hence increasing body roll. So wouldn't a 1.5" drop from the Sportline kit (or even 1.0" drop from the pro-kit) essentially require roll-center correction to minimize body roll?

Looking forward to your responses, & thank you in advance for your insight.
