Bonus time is the 15th and I want to get a set. Carparts (I know you all hate them) had them with 33% coupon shipped for just under 200. I can't find anywhere else close. Suggestions? And should I get their alignment kit? Did those of you with eibachs use one?

You don't need to adjust your camber if you're using Eibachs. I bought my set for $227, but I don't know how much they cost now.

Oh yeah, make sure you receive the correct springs because one of us didn't. He had to uninstall and return them.

what purpose do eibach's serve....

other than lowering your max, do the springs do anything else, like make the ride more sporty? does it improve handling?

They're supposed to give a more performance ride... a little stiffer but worth the trade off.

You lower the car's center of gravity by putting on Eibachs, thus improving handling somewhat.
