Eibach Springs

Well i was offered a deal on these Eibach Springs brand new never used in the box with warranty. The guy is letting them go with the pro kit for it for 200.Just out of curiosity how many of you Max fans would go for this deal?

I'd buy it! That sounds like a great deal.

edit. further research shows that you can get a new set for a little less than $40 more. So, your call.

Ive tried many springs over the years and went back to Eibach. They are the best for our car. You can buy them used for 100-150 typically. 200 for brand new eibachs is a great deal. I say go for it.

You can find hundreds of threads on this by searching. But I will be brief. You can use kyb gr-2 or tokico hp (blues) for a stock replacement if you are on a budget. Or you can opt for tokico illumina or kyb agx which are adjustable.

Eibach has the hands down best ride for springs. Go for it.

Would you believe me if I told you the guy gave me everything I needed for 200? lol I found the guy on craiglist he lived near by. I met the dude he seems pretty cool sad to hear he had to let go his max.Pretty amazing what he did to it saw pictures. Here are some pictures I took not the best quality but it's better then nothing.

You'll like the Eibach springs, it gives a nice drop and you should notice a considerable difference in your ride. You good a decent deal, enjoy!

Well right now I'm still debating if I should get some new struts. I did some research and I found out that if I use my stock struts they are more likely to wear out and It would make sense to just get some new struts but I don't know what kind of struts is good for my Eibach's and my ride. I'm kinda on a tight budget the most I can spend right now is 200-300ish? Can someone point me out thanks.

Sorry for not explaining myself properly I meant the struts. Already have the springs.

EDIT: I'm wondering if the Tokico HP Blues would be the best for my car.Hmm
