i just got a message from them there is a problem with the order.

I heard that the tokico springs were completly sold out so that might be it.

Maybe Ill just get the suspension tech springs, they seem to lower the most.

EIBACH! = Progressive Rate.

If you just want to lower the car, remember your stock springs and struts are so old, they may currently be lower than a lowering kit.

So when you replace them, you might actually have a *higher* stance.
