Need pics of eibach pro kit

Hey all.
Just need to see some pictures of any new edge cars with the eibach probkit.
I wanted to order the Eibach sport kit but everywhere is out of stock. I’m getting mixed readings on how much it will lower it some sites say 0.8” other day 1.6”. Sooo there’s a bit of a gap haha.
I have on order and on it’s way a set of 18x9/10 wheels and c&c plates coming because I wanted the Eibach sports but now they are out of stock.
Any help would be appreciated.

I should also say I’m open to other brands. I’m looking for the 1.75-1.25” Range. Low stance but not hammered to the ground.

Don't waste your money, they are the same as one of the ford racing springs. I had the ford racing version and they are way too soft for these cars!!!
H&r race or super race are the way to go. The spring rate seems high but with the softer springs you end up riding the bump stops

Re: Need pics of eibach pro kit

I had the Eibach Sportline springs on my 2001 GT and I'll never do it again. The car looked great, but it had the ride quality of a tobacco wagon and it would bottom out on the rear bump stop every time I hit a dip in the road. If you drive your car regularly, I'd avoid them.

I have the eibach pro kit springs on the stock rubber isolators. I haven't noticed anything about them being soft. Car handles great and I'm still using the stock shocks and struts. I also didn't need caster camber plates or a bump steer kit. I didn't want my car slammed. I'd definitely buy them again.

I’ve always wondered..what’s the height difference between the Sportlines and the Pro Kit? I can’t really tell in the pics I’ve seen over the years.

Re: Need pics of eibach pro kit

Thanks for all the opinions guys. I ended up going with the H&R supersports. I was hoping for a little firmer but these are supposed to be a bit firmer than the eibachs so I think we made a good choice. We got about 1.25-1.5” out of it. The wheels and it’s went on at the same time so I don’t really know but the stance is good.
