eibach pro's
so i did use the search and it didnt really help, i just bought a brand new set of eibach pros for a $100 and my question is ive heard they go well with KYB GR-2s but until i get GR-2s is it cool to use these on my stock struts? i read that someone said that theirs blew out after replacing springs on stocks. has anyone used em on stock and how was it?

were did you get the springs from for $100? you should be fine on stock struts until you get the gr-2s in. i think midgear has em on stock struts, but i'm not sure.

i have a set of eibach's with the FE-3 suspension stock struts, that I purchased off MFuller. He had about 20,000 miles on them when I bought them, and I have put another 15,000 km on them since I have had them, and not a single problem...

something like that.....they are the real deal, and with the eibach pros they are the best setup you could have unless you really stepup and get custom coilovers like me,oldsman, and that crazy canuck.....

The only reason you're ok on stock struts is because the drop is so little with the pro kit.
If you plan on any lower than 2'' than you'll blow out the stock struts.
