I am still deciding between the Eibach Pro R1s, the KW V3s, and the RSR i-coilovers.

Question: Do the resevoirs reduce inner wheel clearance at all?

Any update? I saw FT86 Speed Factory had them listed on their site, I didn't check to see if they were in stock or not. The R2s are listed at $2.7K, a little pricier than I was expecting but still want to go with them.

Also that 2.7K price I believe is MSRP, street price should be several hundred less I'd guess.

I believe retail on the R2 is approaching 3K, but even at that price I do not think you can touch them considering the features and how complete they are. And that the street price will be less...

3199 is retail from what I am seeing, street price will vary of course but actually quite reasonable considering the content.

Yep, both the R1 and R2 have camber plates up front and new mounts in the rear.

The quality of the ride is great, because these are adjustable setting from soft to firm
