They are good. I think most people here go with those or the H&R Cup springs.

I have to disagree with you wink.gif

Well I like my H&R's better than Eibachs, I've had both of them them on a 2gen Elantra (96) and on the Tib both, the H&R ones are firmer, not that they are too firm, but I'd say the Pro Kit's lower the car and definetely contribute in reducing the body roll, but with the H&R's you will have a slightest firmer ride, and they are cheaper. Both are top quality though.
If you want another suspension advise, I think it's the shocks the weakest part a Hyundai has, really, OEM shocks suck rocks.

The EiBach springs are not designed to not be used without the Eibach struts. Zman did you use the struts and shocks together or what?

Anyway...... I am using the Eibach springs and struts and love it. Wouldn't trade it for anything besides maybe the Quest full system.

So you're implying that I shouldn't get springs without the struts as well? Are there any lowering springs ya'll would reccomened with the OEM struts?

You can use them but with any lowering/performance spring they operate at 100% only with the correct components. I've heard from other people that the Eibach springs and ..... (I forget the name of the struts) work well together.

If you use any lowering spring with the stock struts dont plan on them lasting too long (the struts)!!!

Default Re: OBD2 Inspection Problem

if you can find (and stomach the price) Konis seem to work well with most lowering springs.. but you are correct.. if the builder designed a system to work optimally with all it's parts.. not using one of those parts will compromise what it is designed to do.
