Default Eibach Suspension?

Hey guys.. I've been looking at these Eibach lowering springs... like $239.99 at PFYC I think. Seems like a pretty good deal. Do you guys think so? Does anydboy have any experience with them or heard any good or bad about them. Fro teh most part, the reviews are good. Sometmes somebody says that the ride quality is real bad (kind of expecting it), and soem say tehy actually drop you lower than they claim. Anydboy know how they are on a Monte? Thansk

I have them with the KYB struts and SLP sway bars. Certainly stiffened the ride, but it's not unbearable. It didn't take long to get used to the ride. I always felt the stock ride, even as an SS, was pretty soft. The handling improvement FAR outweighs what I gave up on ride quality.

I've been thinking the samething for my car. I have a couple buddies that have use Eibach. 1 is on his Sonoma, made the ride a million times better. Suspension is not real stiff. Handles a million times better that is for sure. He went from a lot of body movement to hanging with me in corners when I had my Firebird. Another is my when my buddy had his SRT4. Took a pretty stiff ride and made it stiffer. But it wasn't unbearable by no means.With those 2 cars, the drop was right where theysaid it was going tobe. There worth it, just do it and let us know how you like them and don't forget some pics

The very best is the adjustable KYB's, but you're looking at somewhere north of $600 for them. I'm pretty happy with the non-adjustables. Close to 40,000 miles on them and still working good.

The non-adjustables are WAY cheaper. Check them out on pfyc.com or other sites. Seems like they were less than $200 when I got mine.
