Default Eibach group buy

I was looking around and found these guys. Eibach Pro-kit for $275.00 free shipping. They also have a number for group buys. I was wondering how many woul dbe interested in a group buy. I dont know how much less they would offer for a group buy. I looke dat Eibach and the part number is the same for SXT and RT.

the Magnum Eibachs can be had for $219.95 on Ebay from two separate vendors (search "magnum Eibach" to find them) and several others are also below the $275 price. If you're going to do a group buy these guys may not be the place to start.

Dave, are you looking at doing the install yourself??? I am thinking headers right now, but the thought of spending 8+ hrs under the car does not thrill me like it used to

I'd be interested n a group buy. I really just need the front springs as I'm gonna leave the back stock. I'm gonna keep 20X8.5" rims up front and go with 22X11s in the back. It'll give it the old school rake I'm looking for and otta make the top of the car dang near parallel to the ground instead of dropping down in the back.
Hard for me to pay full price for a kit I'm just gonna use half of.
I imagine there will be used kits available soon. I'll probably have to hold out for one of these as I don't wanna pay more than 150.

Hey Grinner
That I have in mind probably wont work. If you can check with Eibach and see if the front and rear springs are identical(which they are probably not). If they are, I might play with the idea of doing the rake thing too. And we do a split deal. Heck Eibach might even send you just the 2. Esp if you show them your car, they might even make you car a "feature" car on their website. I agree that theses cars need the old school rake. I'd love to tub and put on some good ol fat MT's on the rear.

The front and rears are different, or at least they look different. The rear springs seem larger in diameter than the front. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Hopefully I'm wrong. I had thought about the same thing but 22's are out of the question, not to mention the cost of tires would be outrageous, especially since you couldn't rotate them anymore. I think it would look great, but personally something I couldn't afford.

The springs are different and have a tighter coil between front and rear. Check this 'how to' for reference:
