Eibach and Koni? good combination?
I'm thinking of adding some Koni Shocks. I like the Ride height adjustment.
I currently have Eibach springs now. I've had them for about 5 yrs now. Still getting some wheel gap. I can fit two of my small fingers between the tire and the body of the car. I think back then their springs only lowered the car 3/4".
Will the Koni's drop my car? Instead of looking like a
4 x 4.
Any drawbacks to these struts? How many hrs for instalation?
Or should I order a different lowering spring too.
The passenger side sits a little higher as well.
thanks for the replies.

Springs & Shocks
I run the Eibach coil overs and Koni adjustable shocks.
I run 600 in front 375 in the rear with 17X10 ccw wheels and 275/40/10 tires.
Combo works great, however if you want to race get the revalved Koni's from Tri-Point. The shocks from them dropped my time about 1 second from the stock Koni's and springs.
If you run the big tires you will need to turn in the lips of your fenders.
With the combo you will run 1.5 to 1.8 G/s in the corner with the right tires.
