Default Re: Eibach Springs

Perhaps I should address the Eibach's from another angle. They perform equal to the SRT-6 stock springs. Yes, that's what I said. They move the center of gravity over an inch lower, ride better, and give the exact same times at the go kart track I use for comparisons. So you don't really lose performance with the springs. The problem is with the lower center of gravity you should pick up corner speed. I did not. When I cut my stock SRT springs to match the Eibach ride height and reinstalled them I picked up 2 seconds as I stated before. The Eibach's are a great upgrade over the limited springs and you won't really lose anything compared with the SRT springs because of the lower center of gravity. I want you to have the full story and understand why the Eibach's can give a good ride and perform equal to SRT springs. They are not bad, but if you are looking to track the car with improved corner speeds and grip, they are not the best springs. Again ... IMO.
