Simply love the look of your car, Monte.
Love all the wheels on it - the 19" monzas in particular!

Eibachs look great on that White ED30, but on other cars they dont look quite that low. I had H&R's on mine which sat a little lower and looked spot on  :happy2:

Was thinking the same. The White Eddie looks slightly lower than the black GTI above it on the same springs :confused:

Do you still have the 19" Monza's?

Monte can you confirm you have the H&R Sport springs and not the super sports?

Some of the pics make it look lower than mine (I'm on H&R sport) but maybe the just the angle of the shot.

Really happy with the Eibach Sportlines, prefer them a bit to the H&R ones it once had, but much of a muchness really.

Hi Kalpsn,

Yeah still got the Monza's  :laugh:

The H&R's I have are the Premium springs.

They are part number 29176-1.  :wink:
