Hi Tim;
How do the differ from the stocks? Are they lower; tighter; higher load capacity? |

Why did you go back to OEM's? |

they are a more stiff which results in less roll and better performance in the twisties. they also lower the car about 1.5 to 2 inches (which is why i installed them)
Why did you go back to OEM's?
as i mentioned above, they are more stiff than the o.e. - i'm going from 22in wheels down to 20in wheels. i just want a little softer ride. i guess i'm getting old . . . |

Thanks for that follow up Tim.
I guess I was hoping the springs to be similar to OEM but more for heavy duty use.
I tow a trailer on a regular bases so my rear end sags by about 3/4"............ it must be getting old :2: :2: :2: |

tgeirk;
What size rubber was on your 22's?
There's another member "fastNugly" wondering if 295/35/22 would fit on the MO ok.
Did you run into any problems with rubbing with the size you ran? |

| i was running 265/40-22 Yokohama tires. no rubbing at all. in fact, part of why i used the eibach springs was to bring the chassis down a little closer to the tires |
