Eibach Pro kit over stock struts, opinions?

Hello,

I'm considering getting the Eibach Pro kit for my 02 WRX, and installing it over the stock struts. I want to eliminate some body roll and gain the handling from the slightly lower (3/4") center of gravity. Is anyone running this setup? How tough was it to install, or how much did it cost you? Did you have to make any other suspension geometry changes?

I've got the Eibach Pros....nice springs, and lower the
car just enough. But do it right and upgrade the struts
as well...my stockers died after about 5000 miles with
Eibachs and the car wasn't that old when I put them on.

I've got some KYB AGX's I will be putting in soon when
I get some time.

Other than that, you will want to get the car properly
aligned when you drop it.

Good luck!

i've had eibach's on my stock struts for over 25000 miles now, and had no problems. setup is nice and soft, i've been in cars with other setups and this is definitely as close to stock as you can get with aftermarket springs.
