I use to have the eibach sportlines and looking for something that performs better and looks lower. So far i found the Tanabes but dont know which one to buy. I know the Super downs are 2 inches all around. How do the super downs feel, handle, look? Do you have to worry about scratching or camber? Any help will be good. Thanks

Sportlines are pretty much as low as it goes for a non-adj. spring.

Ground controls. I think you can drop it 3.5". Yeah, it'll ride like ass, but its mad tyte yo!

Do you have any pics of how the drop looked with the eiback sportlines?

You will start to lose performance exponentially when dropping your car beyond 1.5", unless you make extensive provisions to do so. (not just by fixing a crazy camber angle)

You should buy your springs based on your driving characteristics, areas you drive around, comfort level, and lastly, looks. If you want the best of all worlds... then look into coil-overs, but honestly, are you really going to be adjusting them everytime you change your driving areas? Plus the true way to set coil-overs are to set all 4 wheels on a scale and adjust to the weight settings. If it's looks and performance... Stick with Eibach or go with the alternative in Sus. Techniques which also carry swaybars for our cars for a better suspension balance. If you want low with high performance.. go with Whitelines, but be prepared to get a camber kit and seriously look into their adjustable sway bars for maximum handling. just my .02.

Roly- Is there gonna be a sacrifice of ride quality with the "maximum handling"?
