Noisy Eibach springs, possible fix

[Mr.HacKeR]

Hello guys,
First I apologize for making a new thread about this, but I figured it might benefit someone in the future.
As you might know, I only had the front Eibachs' on for a while, and the noise was driving me nuts, some people told me it's the axle..etc. I don't want to bore you with the whole story, but recently I installed the rear Eibachs' as well, and the noise is now gone! So my theory is that the Eibachs' (front) were compressed a lot before, and that's where the noise was coming from. (rears were oem, fronts were Eibach).
Now that I have Eibachs' all around, the noise is gone. It can only be heard on speed bumps, or when the front springs deform (compress).
I saw a couple of posts where people were complaining about the noise being only on one side, it could be the same problem, or possibly a manufacturing error where one spring is stiffer than the other, swapping the front springs might solve the problem.

That's just my theory, I hope it helps others in getting rid of that noise!

Why would you not put the rears on in the first place?

He originally said something about laws pertaining to how low you could go and not wanting to attract attention. Plus it looked pretty even rather than the tremendous backward lean that comes stock lol

+ to prevent this

I really wanted to go lower, so I had to cut that steel damper in order to be able to get into the garage

My Eibachs creeked over speed bumps but after a few months it stopped.
