anyone gives these any thought? i have a audi a4 b8 2.0t, changed the wheels.. now im riding vmr 710's 255/35/19.. rather than going with coilovers or h&r springs.. i jus want the drop.. im choosing eibach sportline over h&r super sport springs because of the drop.. eibach has 1.8 front drop and 1.4 rear drop.. h&r has 1.5 front drop and 2.0 rear drop.. that seems pretty odd.. i call h&r and they said it will even the car all round.. eibach said the same but they sounded like they knew more of what they were talking about... all other springs drop front end a bit more than the rear.. so its odd that h&r would do that..

anyway.. anyone have eibach sport springs here? any trouble rubbing? how is the ride? im keeping stock shocks as i have a lease and will be returning the car within 2 years.

The Eibach springs will be a nice addition, depending on how long the stock shocks hold up, you may be able to get away with only changing the springs. I'd imagine they will firm things up but still give you a nice ride paired with the 19's. I can get you a new set of 4 ( back ordered from Eibach until 9/17/10) for $255+shipping (shipping is roughly $20-25 to your area in LA). The mfg list price is $389.00

Not sure about rubbing, Eibach takes these things into consideration when designing. If your offset is not drastically changed from the factory, I'd say you'll be ok. (opinion)

PM to purchase the springs. Thanks, Mike

I had the Eibach Springs and Struts on my 2000 GTI and loved them. Perfect drop, great ride, cornering was excellent. I'd highly recommend!!!
