PP1 magneride. Steeda 8242 or Eibach pro kit

[Robottrainer]

Try to decide what is a better fit between the two for a 99% street driven car. Don't want crazy lowered but would like a bit better handling. Opinions?

I’ve got steeda 8242. Paired with MPS4S 315/35/20 on project6 GR SEVENS. Love the stance. After the springs broke in, it dropped a tad bit more. I am barely fit a finger inbetween the fender and tire. Hope this helps.

That looks awesome! How do you fund the ride/handling compared to the stock PP1 springs?

It rides a little stiffer and you can feel the bumps a little more. It was not enough to regret the drop. I did the wheels and springs at the same time, so depending on the size of your current/new wheels, your results may very. I also drive it in track mode at all times.

Handles better? I don't plan on going much bigger. I have RTR 19s. 9.5 and 10.5. Probably do a 295 35 19 rear and 275 35 19 front

As far as handling goes, it improved in terms of body roll. If you’re looking for improved handling, I also paired Steedas stop the hop kit starter kit along with their vertical links. This improved the handling immensely. The starter kit is really all one needs, unless your looking to track or drag. I also have the spherical bearings and differential bushings that I haven’t installed due to being satisfied with how it handles rn.

I have the BMR cradle lock out level 2 and brace. I plan to install those, the diff lock out and the longer BMR camber links and lock out, the cradle studs from Kelltec. When I do the springs. I did the large BMR lower control arm sphericals, toe links, toe bearings and vertical links last year.

Did you need anything for the rear end of the car like the Camber Adjustment kit?

On steeda's website, they mention you should also get the camber plates for the front when installing these springs, however from other forums and such, I heard it can be a pain in the ass to dial in the rear camber just on the stock stuff alone and that some ended up getting the adjustability kits.

I'm planning on doing these same springs, Steeda front sway bar + end links and the starter stop the hop kit in spring, just unsure if I should pick up also the rear adjustable camber kit so the alignment shop doesn't go ape shit.

I got the camber kit for the front. The rear didn’t require it.

I shall not spend the money then for that adjustable rear kit! Planning on mostly street do will only be done once.

I v
Bought MMR camber plated for the front, the longer billet camber links from BMR and the lock out bracket. Ot has two hole position, one inboard and one outbourd. The adjustable ones worry me as the can be a failure point. If the car is slammed you won't have much choice but to go.adjustable

If the goal is to make the car handle better, my recommendation is the Ford Performance spring set, but that doesn't lower the car much, if at all.

Little bit of both. A little better handling then stock, lower than stock
