My guess would be that those are non cup springs. Which would make the front to rear rack look even more angled as they will be taller. I would do some research into eibach prolines(black ones). I believe the prolines where less extreme and mildly more sporty than cup springs. Without being as much of a change as the red sport line eibach kits.

Just bought a used set in good condition to see if it's possible to get a company to make them. If anybody knows the spring rate when new might be good to let the company know.

I spoke Mark Fish this week and I can confirm he can no longer supply the Koni re valved dampers (only the standard Koni sport ones) and also he has changed supplier on his springs to Eibach. He says they are slightly stiffer and lower the ride height by 15mm.

Re-valved dampers - Bugger
Springs - slightly stiffer than what? Are they now the same as any of Eibachs other springs?

All he said is they work very well in conjunction with the Sachs.
Also he will not have any springs in stock for 10 weeks!

Well it used to be difficult to refute that they were “just Eibach“ and nothing special, going to be impossible now.

Think I will seek advice from you guys on which is the best Eibach springs to get, Pro or Sportline and keep my stock rear dampers.

Well my understanding was
Based on a 182 non cup
Pro lowered 15 mm and stiffens up
Sports lowered 30mm but same stiffness as pros

so use that maths agains a 182 cup pack
Pros lower a little bit and mildly stiffer
Sports lower more and mildly stiffer.

so for oem trophy I would go pro if I was buying again.

have a look at Kam racing for further info

Thanks for the link and at a great price too.
Just need to decide on which way to go, Pro or Sport. I do like the look of the lower ride height but after putting my BG back on stock dampers and springs I was quite shocked as to how well she rode on our crap roads.

Considering that set of 4 is near as damn was the price for 2 oem rears..
End up with some winter/service fronts to have pre built onto some cup struts..

Good place to be for a long term trophy owner.

I have put my name down for a set and hopefully they will be made. Probably will mothball them for the future and go ahead with the Eibach springs.

I was going to sell my B14 set up once the Sachs were refurbished but you are right, they will come in handy for future down time.

Looks like I’ll be getting a set of eibach pro’s given them being the closest thing to OEM out there.
