Does anyone know if this is just a lowering kit? or does it stiffen the suspension as well?

# Top-Performance Handling
# Lower center of gravity
# Progressive spring design
# Excellent ride quality

Re: Eibach Pro Spring Kit.
Cheers.
I'd love to put them on my car, but sacrificing 30mm or so (as small as that is) is a bad idea around here, it'll put it around the same level as my Volvo before I sold it, and I nearly took the front spoiler off on that a couple of times with random badly made speed bumps (I used to work in highway design)

Re: Eibach Pro Spring Kit.
ive got them on my car and tbh they dont lower it a great deal, the arches just sit above the tyres, ride is a tiny bit stiffer and bodyroll is ruduced to.

Re: Eibach Pro Spring Kit.
great mod, finally Fiesta rides like a regular car not an electric toy.
but it's noticeably lower - with front lip spoiler almost any curb is too high

I've had mine on for about 2 weeks now, handles and looks much better :0) just a remap to go & i've done all the mods i'd planned (well, maybe new alloys if funds allow.....)

Word of warning on fitting the springs, get the tracking checked after a couple of weeks to allow them to bed in, had mine tracked and it was towing out by 8 degrees, garage reckon it would've scrubbed my tyres (michelin pilot sport 3) out in about 6-8 months!

Re: Eibach Pro Spring Kit.
If a garage told me mine was scrubbing that bad but still had that long left of use on them, i'd be thrilled! The amount of mileage i do burns through mine in around 9 monthsBlueoval09 wrote:Word of warning on fitting the springs, get the tracking checked after a couple of weeks to allow them to bed in, had mine tracked and it was towing out by 8 degrees, garage reckon it would've scrubbed my tyres (michelin pilot sport 3) out in about 6-8 months!

Think he was being a little optimistic (did look a bit like a village idiot too) The fezza feels better now it's been tracked though so well worth the £20 outlay :0)
