I just got a set of eibach springs for my ride and I was wondering if I need to get anything other than new struts and an alighnment. btw what are good struts to get with the eibachs?

any kind of strut that are shorter a couple of inches to compensate for suspension travel would be the best.

but just for your info, u could use your stock ones if they're in good condition right now, wait until they wear out, thats not gonna take long and then get new struts.

you might need a set of CC plates if u cant get alighment to the specs with new springs.

I know my front struts are on their way out cause the front end bonces like a lowrider on when I'm on the highway.

The only struts that are really made for our car for a lowering set up are the kyb's, i have the shocks and struts on my 95 with the eibachs. Its a firm ride. They also handle excellently. I would reccomend this set up to you. I also advise u to replace shocks, when i replaced my originals after about 7 months on the eibachs neither the shocks or the struts would rebound, they just settled into their most compressed state. Hope this helps you out a little.

from all my research....this is what ive learned....eibachs....get kyb's for sure (tirerack.com has them for cheapest), make sure you do it all at once...other wise you'll regret it...like me...

Yes, the KYB + EIBACH setup is nice.make sure your tires are in good shape because the new setup will make you want to test out a few things.
