Default Eibach Spring pics???

I'm thinking about lowering my Z using the Eibach lowering springs. Does anyone have any pics of a Z that has been lowered using these springs. I just need to see how low the car would be. Also, did anybody have any problems with the tires scratching after the car was lowered?

Their are better springs then the Eibach for the Z...

Eibach's lower the car 1" all around, but are squishy in the corners loosing the tight handling of the Z...

if you have stock wheels and tires you wont rub no matter how low you go...

The more favorite of the 350Z springs are TANABE GF210 and TEIN S-Tech's...

I've got tanabe GF210s and I love them. Perfect amount of drop (although it can be tough to get around here in alabama sometimes, I've had many a scrape), the ride isn't rough, but it is pretty firm. No bounce, and it definitely improves the cornering capabilites of the car. When I first started autocrossing, that was the only thing done to my car and I was turning times within a second of an experienced Z driver with azenis (I was still on RE040s).
