Sportback Eibach Sportline Ride Height

[CHRS3]

Hey guys, just wondering if anyone can share images of their car after having Eibach sportline springs fitted? I’ve had mine fitted for around a month and done 2/300mile on them, some harder miles on the weekend too so they’ve settled no doubt. However the ride height doesn’t seem to have dropped to the claimed amount. Still a significant arch gap (although running P Zero tyres) and when I look at cars fitted with H&Rs, which only drop 5mm more front/back, it seems a good 15/20mm higher. I don’t know whether the S3 sportlines have a different drop/part number and I may have been supplied the wrong ones I will check the number tonight, or maybe they’re at the right height and H&R drop way more than quoted.

I’ll attach some photos later.

For reference (ignore the dirty wheels/car )

Is this the same drop other people have experienced on these springs?

Looks like a good happy medium for a drop to me and may be the route I go.. how is the ride? if you get some decent tyres on it should fill out a bit more also

I don’t mind the ride height just the quoted figures said 25 front 20 rear, seems to be sitting higher than the quoted drop. When I look at cars with h&r the front and back is a lot lower and they’re only quoting 5mm more drop. Was unsure if this is the same drop as other people. Michelin’s will definitely fill out the gap a little more the tyre walls on the P Zero seem so small.

Can’t comment on the ride as such yet as I haven’t had the mag ride recalibrated so car is a bit all over the place. Once I get it calibrated I’ll let you know how it feels buddy.
