Broken rear spring, none-lowering options?

Post by carl2990 » Fri Apr 14, 2017 3:38 pm

Just changed back to my summer wheels, freshly refurbished 108s! :thumbsup:

Unfortunately my rear offside spring has snapped. :headbang:

It's a 3l si so believe it has sports suspension, don't want to lower it any further. What's my options in eibachs? Do they have anything which doesn't lower the car further?

Cheers!

Eibach will lower. If you don't want that then stick to suplex or OE but expect them to snap again.

Cheers for the quick replies! Think I'll go with Eibachs, what are the risks of arch rub?
