K guys, I need your advice quick as I'm about to but a set of springs to lower my car. I can either get a set of Eibach Pro Kit for $100 Canadian or I can get a set of Tein S-tech springs for $170 Canadian. I know the Tein does a lower drop but more of a drop in the front. The Eibach does like a 1.5" all around. Is there a big differnce between these springs. I'm planning on getting 18" rims in about a week. Let me know what you guys think! Thanks, Basil.

I will also be using the stock stuts for the time being.

Eibach Pro kit is 1.5 inches all around
Tein S-Techs are 1.6 in the front and 2.1 in the front.

Did you make a mistake. I personally dont like a 1.5in drop becuase you see too much gap. It all depends on what you are looking for. If you want a minimal drop than go with the pro kit.

Are you planning to run on stock shocks? If so with 18's its probably better to go with the pro kits for a less harsher ride. The shocks life will shorten on the lowered springs (depending on driving style, etc.) as it will shorten more with 18's. IMO I'd go with the pro-kit.

I had my stock shocks on for a while with an aggressive drop but just because I had them doesnt mean it will work for you.

I have a buddy with a few cars and he uses Eibach on all of them. He's always telling me to buy Eibach springs.

Honestly, you need to compare Eibach Sportlines to Tein S-Tech.
Compare Eibach Pro-Kit to Tein H-Tech.
