Default hawkeye lowering

Hi all,

im looking at lowering the car, i have 18'' wheels, but can't lower much more than 25mm as it will scrape when pulling on/off the drive, does anyone have any imput of the best springs to get ? or pictures of what 25mm drop looks like ? also will it require a wheel alignment after lowering?

thanks

Yes, you will need full geometry setup. I have Eibach on my Blob

Prodrive springs are made by Eibach!! I have a set for sale for the Hawkeye WRX if you are interested. (just 500 miles on them) They lower the car by between 30 and 40 mm all round. They are a progressive spring
