GEN 1 Anyone running the Gen 1 Eibach front springs?

Any updates? I’m curious to see how much lift these actually give.

Ok so my purchaser has finally come back from Vacation and our contact at Eibach states they are a linear spring and a little higher rate than stock just longer. I now have conflicting info on if they are progressive or linear rate. Guy I spoke with on phone said progressive and our contact says linear. ...ugh...Since they dont have photos of the springs online, I asked for a photo so I can see what type they are myself . I will probably still buy anyway. I will update ASAP.

I have heard back from the contact at Eibach and received their design file. The Eibach are definitely linear rate at 650lb/in. The spring is wound with a constant 30.5mm between each coil.
I will be still be ordering them for science.

Awesome, thanks for taking on the science experiment! Looking forward to the report.

So these springs are 650lb/in and about 10% higher than stock. What are the actual stock spring rates exactly?

Stock spring rate is 640lbs

It sounds like they are leveling springs. They should have the same handling characteristics as a stock spring on bottom perch without the nose dive under braking along with the lift of say mid perch or slightly above. This is what I assuming from the data that I have gathered.

Great thanks for the info. I ordered a set a couple weeks back so they should be arriving any day.
