Default Eibach Lowering Springs Any Good??

Im thinking of fitting some lowering springs to my 04 WRX. Ive done a bit of research on the net and the more positive feedback tends to be towards Eibach Pro spring kit. Has anyone fitted these to their car??

Im after a spring that lowers the car slightly but doesnt make the ride 'Boneshakingly' firm or effect the handling in any negative way..

Any info/feedback would be much appreciated!!

Ok cheers guys, I think i might order myself a set of those now then!! Did you need to have the wheel alignment or anything else checked after fitting the springs??

I would not fit the Pro Kit springs to a car of mine, weather it be a Impreza or anything else. I've just got rid of a set that were fitted to my Fabia VRS - terrible spring. They are too soft, they over lower, and make for a crashy and bouncy ride, not to mention trash your dampers in short time as most of the droop is lost.

I know that sounds like I have a downer on the Eibachs but if you like spirited A/B road driving you wont like these springs. If you pootle about then fine, and they will make your car look good

Hey we have fitted a few Eibach Pro spring kit in recent time really effective springs especially on the scoobys transformed the handling completely and sets the car off at a good height. if your interested get in touch.
