Eibach springs on their GS with 18" rims? I can't decide whether to get Eibachs with the 1 inch drop OR the H&R with thd 1.4 inch drop. I want the reduced gap look BUT I don't want to be scraping the ground all over the place with too much of a gap reduction. Thanks.

Yep!
Brent - Go to www.aceaudio.net & click on "Custon Installation". My GS has the 1.25" Eibach drop springs with TRD struts & 18" Zenetti Vegas. Haven't had any problems scaping things as of yet ( speed bumps, driveways, etc ). Wouldn't put a front spoiler on though - at least not on the Louisiana Interstates!

I have Eibach's with a 1" drop and it rides fine. I originally had Tanabe's with a 1.75" drop and it bottomed out all the time and immediately replaced them. Attached is the before and after pics with the Eibachs.

Hi Ron,
I'm a bit confused about the before and after pic...I see that one is lower than the other. Is the lower one the Tanabe 1.75 or the Eibach? Is the higher one stock height? or Eibach? If the higher one is Eibach, than that looks pretty high for Eibach's...Thanks.

I figured that would confuse everyone. The before pic is before I lowered the car at all (stock). I didn't post a pic with the 1.75" drop, only the Eibach 1" drop (bottom pic). Sorry for the confusion.
that looks really really good
first time I have seen a before and after pic of a dropped car, too bad I can't drop mine cause of my hilly area, its sooooo tempting ! :-)
by the way, are those 18" rims?
