Hi guys, i'd like to drop a little bit my hatch, as you may know here in Europe the sport hatch has the electronic adaptive suspension, do you know if it's possible to replace the stock springs in these suspensions?

Thank you guys! have you encountered any problems with the springs?
I have no problem with springs and really like ground clearance which is provided by pro kit. you will not lose any comfort up to 100-120 km/h almost same as factory setting however after that the car will jump very lightly depending on road surface.

So it seems like eibach is the go to for most people
I don't know. It's strange but on some cars they seem to lower enough for my taste but on others they don't look low enough and they're all Sports/Tourings with Eibach Pro.
Makes me want to go for coilovers but still nothing available in my country except for ST suspension and I'm not too fond of them.

Can someone may answer me the following questions regarding the Eibach Pro Kit:
  • Have you trimed the rear and front bumper stops as mentioned in the Eibach manual?
  • Do you had to cut the wire from the electronic adaptive suspension (My Honda garage said you can't get the springs out if you don't cut it)?
Thank you

The UK Sport model doesn't have a adaptive dampening. It is only the Sport Plus that does....

I'm on Spoon Sports progressive springs

Ride quality is not comprised. Body roll is greatly reduced and the car feels more Sporty to drive
