Model Reviewed: Dodge Charger R/T

Strength:

Smoother ride, better handling and lower stance giving agressive look

Weakness:

1/4 inch to 1/2 lower than expected. Will need to watch curbs and drive ways for under carriage rubbing.

I have driven my Charger stock for 3 years. It rides ok but at high speeds it leans in corners and did not feel stable. The tires would bounce when you hit any kind of bumps in the road creating a harsh ride. Eibach pro kit fixed everything rides smoother and firmer. Corner response is unbelievable, before I was hesitant to dive into corners or spin 180 because the car was unpredictable. Sure I could spin donuts all day but precision was not there! Really this is a night and day upgrade and only took me two hours to install myself. You won’t even need a spring compressor if you are careful. I rented one but never even used it. If you get only one upgrade for your Charger/Challenger/Magnum get this! I even drove an SRT8 Charger and mine drives better now! Only complaint I think that would affect normal drives is that it is a little lower than expected.

Strength:

After using Boge, KW and Ventura springs I can confidently say that the Eibach Pro springs are the best by far. I have KW sport dampers on my E46 BMW. The Eibachs give a refined ride that progressively stiffens up the more severe the corner. The car also sits a little higher than the others (only 30-40mm drop) so I have less problems scraping the bottom. Excellent product, buy with confidence!

Weakness:

none

Excellent product, refined but with amazing handling the more you push them.

Strength:

Cheap, affordable, excellent ride height, and definitely an upgrade from OEM.

Weakness:

I can't find anything. If I were to choose, I guess---> No color choices? LOL!

Great product!! I love the ride height, especially during the snowy seasons! Definitely better than OEM. I've had dramatically lowered ones before and they were rough as far as drivability was concerned. I used these in AutoX races and it performs well. It's my daily driver so I chose these instead of the more radically stiff full coilovers. One day I will though.
Overall, if you want a somewhat race performing spring with great driveability comfort. These are the springs for you.

Strength:

Brand name, improved handling

I upgraded from the stock springs on my golf. The eibach kit was cheaper than oem gti springs which i was originally looking for. Ride quality is comparible with the gti in terms of firmness, although the progressive springs do soften small bumbs better. Got about a 30mm drop. Im happy with the product.

Model Reviewed: Acura 2.3 CL

Strength:

- streetable, comfy ride
- no rear camber kit required, only alignment adjustment needed was toe-in
- eliminates the big up and down motions at highway speeds that are bothersome in the stock Accord suspension
- not enough of a drop to scrape muffler on things in most cases

Weakness:

- can still feel smaller up and down motions around town, suggests spring tuning is a bit conservative
- Neuspeed or H&R would be a better choice for more hard core tuner people
- can't match handling sharpness of a full coilover kit
- can't get Eibach Pro-Dampers for this car

This is a highly streetable product that won't wreck your car's ride (depends on your choice of dampers of course). When I first got this I felt like I was sitting down on the street and I still feel like I sit lower than most cars (in Calgary everybody wants to drive a truck) In the Acura CL or Honda Accord, due to its 1.3 inch drop this is about the only product that will eliminate almost completely the wheel well gap and have it not look awkward like a race car. H&R OE isn't enough of a change and H&R Sport or Eibach Sportline will make your ride worse and require a rear camber kit. I'd say 1.5 inch drop max for this car for it to still properly integrate with the rest of your stock parts. 2/3 or 3/4 dive and squat eliminated due to shorter suspension travel. I do notice short up and down motions instead of the old large ones at highway speeds, 65 mph plus, which is where I found the stock suspension objectionable. This suggests the Tokico Illumina/Eibach Pro Kit combo is still a bit soft for serious race use. A coilover kit, if you are willing to pay the price premium and need the ride height adjustability will give you better handling because the dampers and coils are designed to work together.

Strength:

Great lowering stance/center of gravity, ride quality

Weakness:

I scrap because of my bodykit, but I'm getting better.

Great upgrade, I believe suspension should always be your first upgrade in any vehicle. So far I still ride comfortably, but i recommend aftermarket struts or shocks. My stock struts were shot shortly after install. My ride is 1.5" lower and I hug the corners.

Model Reviewed: Eibach Pro Kit Springs

Strength:

Improved the appearance without making the car look like a sled. Firm, solid ride. Markedly improved take off and cornering (very sure cornering) - no guessing whether they are worth the money. The car actually drives like a sports car now. Two cool Eibach decals come with the kit.

Weakness:

Be ready for more distinct thumping sounds and more sports car-like ride over the bumps than original springs, but, there should not be any banging or clanging.

I put Eibach Pro Kit springs on my 04 Alero about 1 month ago and am happy I did. They lowered the car nicely, about 1.5 inches front and back, and everyone who knows the car thinks it looks great now. Even wifey noticed and loves the look and she couldn't care less about cars. CORNERING is unbelievably tight as there is NO BODY SWAY. One thing I had to get used to is that the car now wants to make much tighter turns than before - which I like a lot. I was and still am amazed at the take off - smoother than original and cat like. RIDE QUALITY: Initially there was a distinct sharp bang from the right front wheel. Before installing the springs I had read the reviews at CARREVIEW so I expected that, but, as I drove the car more and more over rough roads the bang became irritating and unacceptable. Before taking it back to the mechanic I jacked the front of the vehicle up and while it was supported on an approved stand I twisted the right front spring about 1 inch clockwise. Since then - no more bang out of that area and still a smooth, firm, sure, ride. Also, NO RUBBING from the tires as clearance still is respectable. I have 16 inch wheels on the Alero now (original) and will be putting on 18 inch wheels in April for summer driving fun and appearance. Can't wait. Did the measuring and as long as I stay within the fitment recommendations I am expecting no problems. I think before lowering a vehicle it would be a good idea for the owner to do some measuring and then get a company like Sears (where I purchased the springs and had the installation done) to sign off on the job. That way, if there is a problem such as wheel rub or bottoming out that can't be fixed Sears can make good on the deal. Anyway, I am very happy with Eibach Pro-Kit springs and recommend them. Best part of all, I got two cool Eibach decals out of the deal. Not bad A-tall for $640! Price includes installation and alignment.

Model Reviewed: accord

Strength:

handling, ride comfort, lowers tastefully-not slammed to ground

Weakness:

rear coils slam together on large bumps making clunking noises...i would assume its because they are progressive rate springs

it seems a lot of these reviews don't give any relevent information so im here to help. if your looking to increase the handling performance of your car...while still trying to retain decent ride comfort these are the springs for you.they are progressive rate so that means with everyday driving they have a softer rate but when you push your car and the springs start to compress in a turn they get stiffer giving you a more sporty feel. its the best of both worlds. currently im running koni yellows with sus. techniques sway bars so im sure that helps too. as far as ride hight goes, i think traditionaly eibachs ride a bit higher in the front than the rear, i solved this problem with my struts since they are slightly adjustable. ride height is perfect for year round driving. it provides the perfect blend of stiffness, height, and ride comfort for everyday driving. if your looking to really take the curves these will do the job but i highly recommend sway bars too. good luck.
