Model Y lowering springs

Not sure if I needed camber arms or not but I just bought them anyways. They’re super easy to install during the spring installation, and there’s cheap sets out there. I have MPP but there’s 200 dollar kits from what I’ve seen.
 
Not on Eibachs, but just to show what a slightly taller tire looks like.

This looks absolutely gorgeous! I have a set of H&R springs sitting in the garage. I'll get them installed one of these days. Good work, Sir.
 
I'm waiting to see someone with an LR install these. I was going back and forth between Eibach and H&R, but I really didn't want the front much lower than the Eibach specs. This is despite the fact that I personally don't like the look of a car with a larger front fender gap than the rear. I'm happy with the Eibach setup, but I might make a change after seeing some pics of the H&R's installed on an LR.
I recently just had H&R lowering springs installed on my Model Y LR, check out my instagram for pics! instagram.com/modelyphvntom/

Looks great Tom. Can you measure hub to fender for me please? HR published 1.7" front and 1.4" rear which I like better than the reverse rake on Eibach. My concern being compression stroke on the shocks though. In your opinion how is the ride? I've known HR to settle a lot in a year so that's another thing I would want to keep my eyes on. We're about to release a video with the Tein Endura Pro Plus adjustable shocks on the Y vs OEM MYP suspension. That might be a nice addition to these springs for a comprehensive setup.

Tom's Y from his IG page is below. He's rocking 20x10 +45 and 275/40/20. I'm about to install some 20x10.5 +40 with 295/40/20 because I got a killer deal on them.

The height / stance on the H&R's looks just about perfect. Curious how the ride is on the Y with them? My experience with H&R springs in the past is they tend to ride harsher than Eibach's & I'm concerned with going that low for our part time 'family' vehicle in Michigan (winters and poor roads). The lower rear on the Eibach's looks a little off and will be even worse with kids and gear in the back.

damn...that is looking soo clean!
 
@tom @ eas I just took delivery of 2023 LR Model Y 7 seater with the new comfort suspension. Can the eibach springs be used on my 7 seater? Is there any difference to worry about? Also, I’m in Anaheim as well. Do you guys do install?
Compatible with both 5/7 seaters. We have Eibachs in stock and perform installation as well, feel free to contact me directly or drop by and I can answer any questions you have.
