Eibach Lowering Springs

    Eibach Lowering Springs guide

    Eibach’s lowering springs are sorted into lines by how far they take the car down and whether the height can be changed afterwards. Pro-Kit accounts for nearly all of the listings. It is a progressive-rate set, wound to stay supple over small bumps and to firm up as it compresses, and it is meant to work with the car’s standard dampers. Sportline sits lower and is described as the firmer option, for cars where stance and reduced body roll come before ride comfort. SportlinePLUS adds height adjustment, so the final ride height is set on the car, not by the spring.

    Each listing is a complete set for one model, named in the title with its chassis code where there is one, such as E46 or 8V. One set often covers related body styles too, so read the variants in the product details.

    The fitment data is led by BMW, Volkswagen and Audi, ahead of Mercedes-Benz, Opel, Ford, Skoda and Renault, with Peugeot, Seat, Hyundai, Mazda and Fiat also well represented.

    If you choose Sportline, confirm there is room for your wheels and tyres at the lower height first, and book an alignment check once the springs have settled.
