Just wait until the springs settle in...

LOOK CLOSELY AT THE REAR PICTURE!!!

You see the bottom of my springs? They're all pressed together.. is that normal?

How's the ride quality on them, bouncy at all? Stiff? The drop is 1.8" right?

It's a 1" drop.. or at least it should be. It looks more than 1" tho...

The ride quality is just about the same as stock...

The little bumps.. these new springs handle better but the worst bumps and holes in the road... the stock springs handle better.

congrats kent! lokos great!
yup, the bottom two or three coils tend to be dead coils for all lowering springs for the 7th gens.
if i'm not wrong the eibach camber kits are re-branded ingalls..... personally, i'm thinking about picking up a set of spc, but like marty said, worried about rubbing when i get wider rims.

Nice drop Kent, just enough wheel gap not to get hassled.

Go Eibach! (I'm running sportlines)
