FFS I looked in eBay as well :frusty:

Thanks mate!

Yeah that's where I got mine from in the end and came from Germany. Going on early next week so will post some pics with springs and 25mm all round.

AM have them but eBay is cheaper. I'm considering 25mm all round my self.

This is my first post on this forum... Thought I should join in :-)

I have eibach 25mm front and rear... They look good I think, although am slightly worried about how close the tyres are to the wheel arch at the rear. I think ideally I would go with 20mm rear in hindsight.

I'm going on a track day soon and will have the spacers removed beforehand just in case.

Mine is quite low though... Lowered 35mm front and 30mm rear on KW coilovers

I had my spacers fitted and supplied by JW Racing in Dunstable

Couple of pics:

That's some tasty looking mods to the bottom of the car... are they all (including the spoiler) from Anderson?

Also loving the red accents... very individual and really make the car stand out from the norm. Can't imagine there's many heads don't do a half turn when that rumbles past :hail: !

Oh... and :coolphotos: by the way!

Spacers have gone up by £10 in the last week alone :(

RobMJ · Jun 30, 2016

Mine go on Monday along with the Eibach Springs, thing I'm really struggling on is what to tell the garage to set the car to.

On Gibbo's thread he mentioned

Front camber: -1.33
Front total toe: +0.05
Rear camber: -1.55to1.65
Rear total toe: +0.26

Is this what everyone has done? I think I also need to buy some camber bolts from BMR which is a pisser because I want the alignment done straight after spacers and springs. I have never lowered a car before and to be frank it's all daunting but I just want to reduce gap of wheel to wheel arch.

Would love to hear what other people have done.

CJ Pony have recommended alignment for the Eibach springs they sell...however other settings are available...
I started out with these and they were tweaked based on what I told the specialist about my driving style.

I'm beginning to sound like a talking billboard for CJPP...

Thanks Steve, they don't mention camber bolts etc. They suggest

Front End Alignment Specifications

Sportline Camber: -1.2 deg
Sportline Caster: 7.5 deg
Sportline Toe: 0.2 deg

Rear End Alignment Specifications:

Sportline Camber: -1.6 deg
Sportline Caster: N/A
Sportline Toe: 0.2 deg

Will show the garage this and see how I get on.

Thanks again

I did have camber bolts fitted as i bought the springs from GT101 and they recommended them. Really no expert in these matters
