Measure out 5 to 10 mil between your thumb and finger its not much at all.
I know 2 people who bought these and had them up for sale straight away once the saw how much it actually dropped the car. :happy2:

....Yes, because they bought these springs out of ignorance - They were only going for the lowered look and not considering anything else. Like I said, these Eibach Pro's are perfect for the KoniFSD's because they smartly soften/harden according to the road surface - An ineviatble compromise which necessitates enough room to travel.
There are plenty of other springs which will achieve a lower look.
Horses for courses.

If you just want to get the perfect ride height with a bit o f an increase in handling then i would scan Ebay for some H&R springs its a good compromise, and they are quality springs. :happy2:
