So who on here has a Roadster with the Eibach kit?
Goods?
Bads?

Thanks in advance.

 

I put them on a few weeks ago and am waiting for them to settle a bit still. While definitely lower than stock they aren't quite as low as I expected, but I'm told to give them as much as a month to fully stabilize. Since I don't drive the car all the time it may take me longer than a month for that to happen!!

Ride quality on my Limited Roadster is not much different from stock, and in all honesty after spending all weekend on track with the car I'd like it to be stiffer for that purpose. I wouldn't have a problem with it giving a bit stiffer ride in street use either, but I'm certainly not complaining.

 

Mike -
Is this the kit that you used:
#2552.140

the only bad thing is trying to getting the wheels properly aligned. it is still a little off even with a camber kit, but all is well and no strange tire wear. no regrets, by far.

 

If you don't use a camber kit will the tires wear uneven? I think Maxwell posted a camber kit that was posted on one of the mercedes sites, has anyone used this one I think you can adjust the camber alot closer to spec.

 

Yes, that's the one. I got mine from tirerack.com

 

andrew and some of the others have reported no uneven tire wear on theirs.

 

I lowered my '04 coupe a "twin" to Andrews and every set of tires wore uneven to the inside edge ! I drove almost 70,000 miles ! I did notice the Contis wore better than the P2s. They all seemed to need changing around 20,000 miles.

 

the camber kit is not worth it imo; the adjustments it provides is way too minor.

 

Anyone else? Thanks.
