how much do they drop the car? since you're on 19s it may not apply since i wanna get 17s, but do you have to do up driveways and shit at an angle?

What's the ride like with Eibachs? Could you go 20's with these springs?

Re: Eibach suspension question

I have eibach sportlines and my buddy put 18" wheels up against my car and they just fit. I dont think 19's will fit much less 20's

Re: Eibach suspension question

Sorry I have 18's on sportlines with a bodykit but you can fit 19's but I would recommend rolling your fenders
