eibach prokit on ae101

Sir,

anyone used these springs before? did you have any problem regarding the front fender gap? i recently bought one and the front fender gap is 4 fingers while the rear is 2.5-3 fingers. Do i need to allow a week or so for the springs to "set"? i used kyb gas shox for the front at rear shox.

eibachs usually only lower the car 1" or 1.5"...ur gap seems normal to me...springs should settle in a day at most.....

sir,

the stock front fender gap of my corolla is 4 fingers... when i put on the spring it was still 4 fingers... i hardly notice any drop... while in the rear, i notice a certain drop since it was also 4 finger-gap . when i put on the rear lowering spring, the gap became 2.5-3 fingers... i hope you can add a little more light to my problem...

Humm...does the front bump stop need to be trimmed before installing those springs?
