I have a 2019 sport hatch on the Eibach Pro Kit. I never thought I’d be running aftermarket wheels and I thought the pro kit was just right. With my new wheels it looks good but lower would look even better. But I don’t want to end up having insane camber or cutting any bumpstops or anything like that to wear the car out faster and make it handle worse. Tell me how you guys think the height looks! Need some insight if I should pick up some skunk 2 springs or the Eibach sportlines! Thank you! The first picture is a crappy edit to show the wheel gap. Let me know!

I went with the sportlines. Not a bad drop at all. But it is more than the Pros and less than the D2’s. Don’t regret it at all!

There’s a good market for them, I’m sure you can resell without taking a hard hit. There’s a lot of people that want to drop but are scared about the sportlines. Maybe even find someone willing to trade springs?

Thanks, appreciate the love! Really?? What’s your IG I’ll follow you back

Actually, you are supposed to cut the bump stops with the Pro-Kit. I think Eibach recommends cutting them 15mm. The info is in the box.
If you don't you will end up with a harsher rebound and more wear on your shocks.

Your car looks good. I have noticed that the Pro-Kit for the hatch seems lower than the one for the sedan.

Oh ok thanks! I heard that the pro kit you can get away with. My Eibach box came with nothing but stickers and a link to a dead site for instructions. It’s lower for sure but just doesn’t satisfy the heigh these aggressive wheels need. I am looking into the skunk 2 springs

Yeah, it's not the end of the world if you don't with the Pro-Kit. I would for sure do it when you go lower though.

There's nothing wrong with trying to achieve the look you want. Sometimes it takes more than one try.

Thanks man! I think I am gonna keep it like this. Just certain angles it could be lower? I do not have any problems whatsoever. You can see some camber, but I am not running the kit and I am within factory specs. Car is so much more planted.

Let me know if you ever decide to switch to sportlines. I have the sportlines on my car w about 3k miles on, and I was actually interested in switching to pro-kits since I ride w more than one person so it frequently it rubs for me

I believe you wrap 245/40 on 18/9.5. You could change to pro kit or reduce the tire size but for straight forward fix, you might want to add a camber kit. Camber kit also gives you room for wider tyre 255/35 in future.

Just, picked up mine a month ago. Thinking of going with the sportlines. Did you ever put them on? How do you like them?
