Mileage on Eibach pro's What is the usual amount of miles these springs are good for? I need 2 replace my shocks and need 2 know if I should put new eibachs on. The current set has 80-90k miles on them. thanks

Re: Mileage on Eibach pro's There's no reason why these springs couldn't last way more than 100k. There are a lot of older LT1 4th gens out there on original springs, and the Eibachs are going to last just as long if not longer than OEM.

Re: Mileage on Eibach pro's I wish the stock rear springs on my 95 Formula would start to sag! The damn car still sits *** high even with 66k on it! I'm doing the rubber garden hose mod soon (where you replace the isolator with a piece of garden hose to lower the rear 1/2")

I only notice it a high speeds, but the car is starting to feel like a Buick in the rear end.... which is one of the reasons I have decided to switch to G2 springs.

Re: Mileage on Eibach pro's I'm thinking I'll have to replace the rears eventually too; I'm getting fender scrape on the passenger side, yet I can still get 1 finger in between the tire and fender.
