Hi gusy, I have a question about lowering the car. Does Eibach Pro kit comes with springs only? And if I want to lower my car with it, don't I need to change my shock absorbers as well? Cus I read on some forums that just changing the springs without changing the shock absorbers will damage the shock absorbers after a while. Is it true?? thnx a bunch~

Yes the Eibach Pro-kit comes with springs only..You dont need too replace any shocks. Down the road, you might need too..

It will shorten the life of them.

Like you, I read the same about changing the struts when lowering your vehicle. The problem is, I found no name brand aftermarket struts.

With all the people who've lowered their cars here and used the stock units, without issue, I'm not too concerned.
