Eibach Pro Spring Kit - Damper issue?
Hurdy:
I had Eibach pro street coilovers and in the 18months that I had them I went through 2 sets of dampers. Personally I wouldn't ever touch Eibachs again after an experience like that.
The dampers were replaced free of charge due to the 2 year warranty, but as they lasted just over a year they were only supplied free and I had to fit them at my expense. :fighting:
Maybe I'm particularly hard on suspension with the way I drive (or the crap roads where I live) but 2 pairs in under 2 years is frankly sh!te!!

So you had coilovers and they failed? What about just the pro springs on stock dampers?

No, I have no experience of the pro-springs with stock dampers. I thought you were meaning having Eibach dampers too! :ashamed:
