EIBACHs not lowering enough
I purchased and had professionally installed at All Aspects a set of Eibach Pro Kit springs on a 2003 Mitsu Eclipse GS. The kit was supposed to lower front 1.4" and back 1.6". Problem is, the back looks tucked much more than stock but the front looks BARELY lowered, and when I say barely I mean BARELY. I would say maybe half an inch or a little more. Has anyone had this problem before, I'm assuming it wasn't All Aspects if the back looks good, but I can't seem to find a solution to the problem. Any help would be AWESOME. Thanks ahead of time.

Re: EIBACHs not lowering enough
so what if anything is there to do about it, I actually ordered the sportline kit but received the wrong one, but decided fuck it whats a half an inch. See where that got me. How does Eibach measure the drop, and if infact its not as low as it should be, would they switch them out?

Re: EIBACHs not lowering enough
it's pretty hard to put in springs wrong, and the guys at All Aspects know their stuff.
If anyone is to blame, it's Eibach. Or you for not getting coilovers.

Re: EIBACHs not lowering enough
did you order for the right model (gs) and not the gt? ive heard of people buying the gt springs, not the gs, and the have an issue with the drop due to the weight difference in the two cars. i got my wife the tein s tech springs, nice drop
