    Eibach sport lines have the weakest rear spring rates of any other spring you can get for our cars. Why Eibach call's them "sport" is truely beyond me. A car with them will understeer much more than a car with H&R's or neuspeeds. Even the techs at Eibach could not believe it when they quoted me their spring rates. Our cars have enough understeer as it is, you don't need the springs making it worse. Nothing wrong with the brand, and frankly I've have some really nice chat's with their techs. But they simply totally droped the ball when they chose the spring rates.

    I got the sportlines on my ride and they are quite fine. It lowered it about 1.6" but about after 2 months or so they settled down a little lower to a little less than 2". I love'm. I'm also runnin 17's on my car so the steering is actually amazing and it's very precise.

    I had those on my accord first. I liked them, they handled pretty good, had them in there for about 2 years. But they weren't low enough so I got Sprint. But Eibach is a reputable company.

    Why do you say that? Are you thinking about camber issues? Or is something else on your mind?

    Yes i do agree with Jim on them because they are in my other accord with tokicos and the back is very sloppy. I thought it was good until i put H&R's with Koni Reds in my other accord and it was like night and day. But ride wise i did like the Eibachs but they do settle a lot. I loved them compared to my Coil overs which rode very very hard.
