Eibach Springs

Whats your guys' opinion on these? How is the ride?
Im thinking about buying these but on the website I found It says the rear is only dropped 0.8." Is that true?

I have owned several pairs, you cannot go wrong with Eibach. Get the coilovers.

not true.

they drop 1.2 front and rear..

if you track the car it is to much in the back.. i raised mine ~3/8". works good..

but if you are about looks. well. it drops 1.2" front and rear.
