want to drop mp5 need info please
 
Hi,

I have 2002 MP5, sitting on 17 with 205/40/17, I want to lower my car but I don't know what I should buy. I would like your opinion on these springs.

I know the old saying, "you get what you pay for". But I dont want to spend 550$ Canadian on Eibach or H&R. I had Eibach on my jetta and I thought they were very stiff.Its mostly for the look so I am not sure if I really need to spend $ to get top of the line or get the ones here on e-bay.

let me know your thoughts.

thanks

Your second post is much better. Do some research on the company that's selling it as well.

Eibach is all I have to say
Feel almost like stock, ride is cleaner and more stable.
A bit more stiff of course, but 90% near stock

the eibachs are proven but i would trust tein, most definitely

Can you run eibach springs with your stock struts and other suspension components or should you upgrade this stuff as well?

Funky Buddha July-16th-2003 08:20 PM

You can run the eibach springs w/ your stock struts. I run H&R springs on my stock struts. They're such a mild drop that I don't think it'll affect your struts that much.
