classics on 18" lowerd on eibacs -25 to 30mm jobbies.i want them but just need some perswation to buy them.im sure pics would convince me.thanks people.

 

I have that setup on my car. IMHO they are not low enough.
The first pic is my car and the second is Silver Scooby Sport's which i believe is sat on H&R springs which is just right
Calling Simon to confirm my facts

 

hope this helps

 

i have the same set up as S.S.S. Red Mica classic with H&R 50mm drops on 18" Rota GRA's and 215 35 18s going on this weekend, will put pics up when the get put on

 

cheers lads keep them coming.do you have any scuffing problems as i cant be arsed with all that anymore.the second scoob looks about the right hight imo but maybe to low to live with.

 

A bit disapointed with the drop on eibachs on my uk to be honest they only dropped about 15mm..handling wise
seem fine but would have liked to close that gap a little more
Would have maybe gone for Teins with hindsight but my drive is fairly steep and a bit of an issue

cheers matt

 

how much do tiens lower by.nice car matt.i used to have a sertiously lowerd car but its to much of a compremise for me now cant be arsed just want to close the gap on the front arches mainly.in a ideal world id go for a full on rally tarmac look fully droped with flaps ect we can but dream.

 

Hi
shorty

sorry mate meant H&R also although apparently teins drop about 40mm??
doesn't seem to be much compromise and was in a similar dilema when I chose Eibachs
Looking at pics of H&R wish I had gone that route...but hindsight is great isn't it and don't really want to rip my splitter off every time i park up outside my house

cheers
matt

 

Not the best of pics....

 

Hey Brun been a while

Yes mine is on H&R's they advertise a 50mm drop and in reality it has dropped the car 25-30mm against the turbo spring heights. This is probably as low as you go anymore degrades the handling I was just about to return the pm shorty but this saves a job

I have 215/35/18's on mine and have not had the rear arches rolled, I have had no issues at all with them, no rubbing and I've not scrapped the bottom as yet but you do need to be observant as it is low. The H&R's are a prgressive spring so they are quite comfortable at low speeds.

Here's a few more for you,







Simon

 

P1 springs and dampers (so Eibach springs) and 18's ....

 

pi springs 40mm drop,18" bk alloys

 

anyone else got any feelings towards h&r they do seem to make the car sit so well.did they improve handling.has anyone had any troubles with arch clearence when carrying passengers or scuffing on the ground.
thanks for teh help lads.

 

what is the make of alloys you have on second car ?
they look kool

 

The alloys on both my car and Simon's are exactly the same wheel - just with a different colour.
They are Roto Tarmac II from a groupbuy last year
