This was a factory option. Shocks wear quicker apparently but if they've done 100k it isn't really a concern! |

I certainly did'nt feel the ride suffered as a result of fitting them. ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies.

Sorry wasn't very clear, I was led to believe you should run shorter dampers with -30mm eibach springs or does this not matter? Have heard good things about the springs though. |

upto about 30-40mm your alright on standard shocks. Any more and ideally you need some shorter shocks like B8s |
