- Spacers wheel spacers
I have a LR lowered on Eibach springs with Uberturbines, but this should give you an idea of what 20mm spacers look like with the factory MYP wheel/tire setup:
Eibach Pro-Kit
Thanks! I knew they were different springs, but I wasn't sure about the struts. Similar to other platforms that I've dealt with over the years, I wonder if as this model ages if there will be more OE parts being sold on the forums as people upgrade (e.g. MYP owner selling their low mileage...

With your new wheel/tire config, you'll be about 17mm's less aggressive than your current rear Uberturbine/25mm spacer setup, and about 15mm less aggressive in the front.

Yea I’m going to see how it looks (or if the spacers even fit) with the 25mm spacers. If they have way too much poke then I’m going to buy 18mm spacers. I basically live on this website: www.willtheyfit.com haha
If you're going for that look, I doubt you'd be bothered by another 8-10mm's of poke with your new wheels/tires and your existing spacers.

That’s what I’m thinking. It’d be Perfect if the eibachs gave a but of natural camber so the wheel tucks in a but more when it lowers the car but not sure how much it will. I’m getting an alignment done a week or two after it gets installed so we will see.
Agreed! The specs for the MYP Eibach springs are mild, but it'd be my guess that it's likely to end up about the same as the LR Eibach setup. I'm approximately 3/4" lower than the stock MYP measurements I could find on the forums (ground to fender). I definitely have a healthy amount of negative camber after lowering which helped angle the tires slightly toward the fender. If that wasn't the case, I'd likely dial some in at the alignment shop. Looking forward to seeing pics!

Looks sweet! Love the stance!
The LR and P Eibach springs are actually the exact same. At least from looking at the model # on their site.
Love how we both have the same mudflaps. I'm actually thinking of switching to the Rallyamour flaps as they may be wider since the wheels are poking so much.
I honestly hadn't looked at the part numbers before, interesting! The mud flaps I have now are only good for looks. Beyond that, I don't know how useful they actually are. Lol
My setup doesn't look that bad in person, but if I were only looking at pictures, I'd have the opinion that it should be lower with the 20mm spacers. Regardless, I'm happy with the outcome.
You also put 20mm on the fronts? Can I see a pic of how much poke you got? Thanks.I have a LR lowered on Eibach springs with Uberturbines, but this should give you an idea of what 20mm spacers look like with the factory MYP wheel/tire setup:

Correct, 20mm front and rear. I have the pics posted in the thread I linked to as well.
No issues with mounting the spacers or wheels. I can't comment on range, as I don't drive the car enough to accumulate the necessary data.
Reviving this. Curious what the consensus is for spacers on a lowered MYP on Ubertines. 20mm back/18mm front for a flush look?
