Eibach ProKit Part # E10-87-001-03-22 for Model 3 Performance

[Bigtuna00]

Used for about 8,000 miles. I've upgraded to coilovers. Specs from Eibach are here:

Lift Kits, Lowering Springs, Race Springs, Shocks & Sway Bars

As far as I can tell these are P3D-specific. Retail $360.

Selling for $200 picked up in the SF bay area (I live in San Martin).

Contact me if you want to discuss shipping; the rates I am seeing our outrageous, UPS $95, Fedex $90, $100 for USPS, etc. so it's probably not viable but depends where you live.

How was the ride quality and handling difference with the springs. I have the UP sways now and it made a huge improvement and wanna lower mine a bit

 

[Bigtuna00]

All aspects of handling are improved, ride quality wasn't noticeably different. This car has absurd amounts of wheel gap from the factory, even with 20" wheels! Note that camber is NOT adjustable from the factory. You'll still be within spec, but the spec is pretty broad and -1.8-2 degrees is a bit much for me.

Still available.

 

[Bigtuna00]

Bump, still have these. If you're worried about shipping send me your zip and I'll get the cost.

I'm interested, have a stealth performance myself. My main goal is increasing ride comfort, especially in the rear. How do these compare to the MPP Comforts that you have now?

Also do you know the difference between:
E10-87-001-02-22
E10-87-001-03-22
E10-87-001-05-22

 

[Bigtuna00]

I suppose it depends on how you define comfort. I find a lower, stiffer car to be more comforting personally But if you mean "softness" or "suppleness", lowering springs will never increase ride comfort as you're using the same dampers with a stiffer spring. The purpose of lowering springs (other than aesthetics) is to decrease body roll and increase responsiveness when cornering, and also to lower the center of gravity.

There's really no comparison between the stock dampers and the comfort coilovers. The coilovers are better in every way. But they're also $2000, not $200

E10-87-001-02-22 = LR AWD, -0.9 in (Front) -1.0 in (Rear)
E10-87-001-03-22 = Performance, -1.0 in (Front) -1.4 in (Rear)
E10-87-001-05-22 = looks like a new part number for Performance, no one actually has it in stock, you'd have to ask Eibach for more details

Makes sense, the main purpose for me is a more compliant ride because my wife complains that the back seat is too bumpy when compared to our old model s. Do you think the Unplugged Mild springs or TSportlines would provide that, or would it likely be the same story?

 

[Bigtuna00]

I've never used either of those so I can't really say. They both claim to be softer than stock for "normal driving". In other words there's a finite range where comfort is increased. But you can't escape the fact that you've lowered the car, thus reducing available travel, thus requiring a stiffer spring to prevent bottom out. If the top of the stroke is softer, the bottom of the stroke needs to be stiffer. Or at least I hope that's what they did But anyway I'm sure you can find testimonials on here from folks that have those springs.

Still available, contact me for shipping info, the closer you are the cheaper it is, the prices in the original post are to Chicago...

The website states that the drop in the rear is 1.4" and the front is 1". From the photos it seems like your car has a reverse rake. is it the angle of the photo? Or does it drop evenly?

 

[Bigtuna00]

It's pretty much exactly level with these springs. Note that you can't measure reverse rake looking at a photo, so I suspect you're talking about wheel gap. It's normal for the rear wheel gap to be less than the front because the front fender opening is larger to allow the wheels to turn. What I would say is the lowering with these springs is pretty aggressive, I wouldn't go any lower that's for sure.

Whether the gap is ok with you or not is ultimately up to you
