I think it's between 3/4"-1". Nice mild drop and a little stiffer rate.

Shouldn't the car get a new set of shocks and struts to match the different springs too? Shorter?

How is your Eibach sway bar by the way? Didn't see any posts about how it improved the handling on your car.

Thanks for asking! Never got around to posting the results, I was too busy just enjoying upgrade. The Eibach sways really helped tighten up the feel of the car... really brought the bodyroll down to a minimum. A great place to start upgrading.

Did you end up getting them, or was the group buy over?

Glad to hear about the improvements!

I'll get the sway bars eventually. Not going to track the car but the added support is good insurance, especially when the family is with me in the car.

I had a long wait with Eibach for my 540 rear sway bar and am somewhat hesitant to go through it again...

These should lower a base/active around .75" maybe a little less.
