I have some Eibach rear lowering springs for sale. They have about 6000 miles on them. The reason I'm selling is because I recently upgraded to coilovers.

I'm curious, I've seen a few sets like these in the past, I don't understand why someone would lower half the car? Am I missing something?

If they have installed coilovers they can lower the rear with those.

The front springs are non progressive which means they can be cut. The rears are progressive and if cut, their action would be thrown off. When I did my suspension, I cut my front springs and replaced the rears with the Eibach's which are for sale. I wanted wider rear tires, and couldn't fit a 8" wheels with the springs which is why I went with coilovers and that is why they are for sale.

So in short, if you want to lower your car on the cheaper side, cut the fronts, replace the rears with these.

Payment sent..do you happen to know how much you took off the front springs. So when I cut mine they match? I'm assuming one coil .
Thanks George

I have the progressive rate Eibachs. I do love them. Nice ride, and when leaned on, they perform.

I am running an 8" wide rim, with 225/45 17's. No rub, or interferance issues at all. FYI.
