Eibach Prokit Lowering Spring Combo

[PaoloJR]

Hello ft86 fam,

I just recently purchased the eibach pro kit. I will be installing it next year before summer. I wanted to get ahead and plan of what good wheel/tire spec that will come close to looking flush with the eibach pro without rubbing. I know I cant fully acheive flush without coils but I wonder if anyone has any recommended setup.

thanks in advance everyone!

From what I remember most people are running 20-25mm in the rear and 15-20mm spacers in the front with the pro kit if you are using stock wheels.

30mm rear and 25mm front for stock wheels. 25mm and larger will bolt on. And are much simpler to install than 15mm or 20mm spacers.

I was running 25mm spacers on 18x8 +45 wheels. IMO they were flush.


Coils dont have as much to do with being flush as wheel offset and camber adjustment. Camber bolts are good for the front. You will get -2 ish rear camber from lowering on prokit.

I would now recomend a bumpsteer kit. I got a whiteline kit. it replaces the tie rod ends and the ball joints in the front. It corrects your suspension geometry from lowering 1". It made a big difference IMO.

I ran prokit springs for 70000 miles. They are great for DD.

I ran several different wheels with the pro-kit. 18x8.5 + 18x9.5 ET38 sat nice and flush as is no need for spacers. BUT... staggered sucks for handling. 17x9 +35 on all 4 corners fit nice too.
