Im thinking about buying Eibach springs soon but i've been reading up on them a lot that theres going to be this noise, im not sure if there's still this problem, has it been fixed? If anyone that installed the springs recently can confirm that it's not making weird noises anymore that'll be great. Thank you :)

I've never heard any noises from my Eibachs tbh. It's probably a problem with the shocks. You should be fine, your car is a '12

That's because I've noticed you have a newer coupe.
The noise he's talking about is on the old batch of eibach springs.
From what I knw, the problem has already been fixed as long as you buy them new.

That I'm not sure at all. But I do know that the eibach logo was put backwards by accident. Other than that it shouldn't make the squeaking noise

I would hear an annoying clicking noise when I made slow turns. The logo is backwards. But thanks to the nicoclub guys I got it fixed. I'd say get them.

I also have a 2012 coupe that I've wanted to lower with the pro-kit. But I just can't pull the trigger for some reason. I feel like I might regret messing with the suspension later on when the car gets older.

I have them, had them installed by a professional. He does suspension all the time. It is winter in NY so I would wait until spring time. I love them and never had the noise.

You'll be alright with the springs. I had mine installed close to 100k miles and my shocka are finally giving out. Keep in mind that I do a lot of canyon runs & have tracked the car before.
