Exclamation

gawd those things will be crap on your car.

remember this.. you DO get what you PAY for.
those will make your car do nothing less than SPRING, BOUNCE, BOING down the road... and handle like ****.

my recommendation?....save up and get a decent set up

seriously, nobody that i know runs them as they are complete garbage...

Err - as I see it they are designed to replace your OE springs so they may or may not be any good (but keep your existing dampers as far as I can see). With the adjustable function you do have the ability to destroy the handling of your car though (assuming they were any good in the first place)

I would certainly only recommend Eibach springs as I personally think they are the only spring which really works well as a replacement on the Impreza.

Obviously, make sure you choose the correct Eibach springs for your car!!
