Kia Stinger Eibach Lowering Springs

[Kelly]

Actually the settings are not in the alignment computer yet. The dealer is getting them from Kia Canada ASAP so I can do the alignment. There is no camber adjustment on the car. So all they are setting is toe and the car tracks straight for now. So whatever the 1.4" puts the toe out by, it's not much. But I hope to do the alignment tomorrow. That's the plan anyway. I just got into work after a 50 km (30 mi) commute and I'm so happy.

Were you able to get the alignment settings done? Thinking of switching out the springs after some hard driving and feeling the rear is too soft. Which dealer did yours?

 

[Steve O]

Scarboro Kia (that's the way they spell it) in Scarborough (aka Toronto). They ordered the springs form Marcor Automotive in Burlington ON. The kit works great and stiffens the back just right. Small tar strips soften up relative to stock. Perfect balance.

Well 2.0L turbo and 2.2 diesel springs from eibach are also available now but they would be costly because of shipping from Germany to USA. $472 shipped for a set. If somebody is interested let me know.

Did you guys only do springs or sway bars also?

 

[Speedybee]

Import Shark also do Eibachs

I ordered a set last week and I should have them by the end of this coming week.. One of my very few gripes is ride height and what has been mentioned on this thread.. I am super exited and will post pics later..

Next phase in a few months will be sway bars..

Not crazy about lowering the ride height, would love to hear any impressions around this, is it weird with 18" tires? More concerned about handling.

Eibach has springs for 2.0T and 2.2 diesel but only for AWD version. Today I got info they are developing springs for 2.T and 2.2 diesel with RWD and they should be available in about 6 weeks.

[RandallK]

This looks amazing... it makes me sad that my car will be at the dealer for a month while the springs sit in my garage..

What happened to your car Randall?

 

[RandallK]

Kia wants to replace my plugs and coil packs and there isn?t a coil pack in the states and they are estimating 3-4 weeks... The bright side is that I am not putting miles on it...

But I have a bunch of goodies ready to go on when I do get it back..
