Default SLP longtubes and Eibach pro kit, possible?

Alight everyone. I have the Eibach pro kit on my car. I also have some SLP long tube headers sitting on floor. Can I get away with this combo? And does anyone have this combination? Pics?

You probably could, but it would be a pain in the A$$ driving around town...I have FLP's and when riding around on slicks/skinnies I have a problem, I haven't had any problems since I've put my radial tires back on though.. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Good Luck! The SLP's hang way low. I have the same setup on my car and I went with the FLP's.

I had the Y2Y bilstein susoension on my 01' and had 2.25" of clearance. As long as I was carefull I was ok. You will have less clearance with the pro-kit.

Does anyone have pics of how low the SLP's hang..regardless if your car is dropped or not or amount of clearance?
