Eibach too low? I've had these springs on the car for over a year now, and I feel the rear is too low. The front is perfect, but I barely can put one finger between the rear tire and the lip of the fender. Is this normal or did I get a freak? Also I have enkei V1s (9.5" wide) and everytime I hit a big bump the rear scrapes. I went with bilsteins all around recently and it helped somewhat, but it still scrapes.
Are there any springs that will make the rear slightly higher without going to stock ones?

I had the same problem with mine, I called Eibach about the problem. They told me that they have re-designed the rear spring to handle the h.p our cars make. They also said that the orignal design was not made to handle all of the h.p and suspension upgrades that we do. I paid for a new set of rear springs only, swapped them out and they took my old ones back, tested them, and refunded my money after they concluded that the springs were bad.

MadIce,
The rear of my car with pro-kit looks like yours with the sportlines (assuming your car is in the sig). I think that's too low. My I think that my rims stick out a little more though (maybe offset on the Enkeis is slightly different).
OC, who did you call at Eibach? I might go that way, because I was going to get something else.

Verdad Gallardo Oskar_Z28 - Yea for the pro-kit that is pretty low. My front sits lower then the back so it still keeps the agressive stance. As for your rims being out a little more, its a differnent offset. The picture makes them look more "in" then they actually are.
