I wanna lower my car about an inch just to cover the gap between tires and fenders and i was lookin to purchase a set of eibachs and was wonderring if anyone had this set up with stock stuts? pics and info on how it rides and what size wheels and fender mods if needed would be appreciated thanks in advance and also would i have to have a alighnment done?

 

you should upgrade the sturts to bilstein or kyb if you want better performance. stock struts will blow in maybe 8,000 -10,000 miles and become VERY bouncy. any time you remove and replace suspension, you should get an alignment to make sure your tire wears correctly.

 

oem gap from top of your wheel well/fender to top of your tires doesnt equate to 1 inch.
eibach's drop about 1 inch.
there's a lot of factors that impact ride, height, etc.

 

I have eibach/bilstein sp. The gap is still there. However, it got reduced by probably 1/2. You could go with a different spring to lower the car more but may have camber issue.
