Eibach sucks... help I need AE92 springs!

I ordered the Eibach springs for my Corolla over a month ago... and they keep telling me they are backordered farther and farther...

So I called Eibach, and they have discontinued all AE92 springs


Anyways, what other brands (that are still being made!) can I use? I was looking at Intrax, but a 1.6" drop is a little much.

TRD springs are made by Eibach, so I'd say no.

Where did you order them from? I see them on Tirerack and Cardomain, maybe those distributors have them in stock?

I called all the distributors that say they have it in stock, but they don't really; they say that as they can usually have them shipped overnight or whatever from the manufacturer. Since Eibach hasn't told any suppliers that they are discontinued, I guess they still think they can get them.

Hmm... none of those around here. I'll call Apex directly and see if I can get a supplier out of them!

I still like that 15 way adjustable suspension for the ae92 that I came across on the net. $1,800 replaces the stock macpherson strut system, all 4 units
