Default A question about spring!(Need help)

Hey guys, it's my first time to write here and I didn't know where to post this question, so I thought the general section might be good.

My question is, I wanna buy Eibach lowering spring, but I don't know if I have to change my original shocks or not because I only have 55 miles on the car, and if I will change the shocks the coilover is a better choice , but they are expensive. I would really appreciate your help.

Thanks

if all you want is to close the wheel gap that your stock suspension gives you then buy springs, keep your stock shocks and be done.

Thanks for responding and I'll go with spring, but I just wanna know if the spring makes noise or not?

Most popular aftermarket springs don't make noise. If you want your shocks to last a little longer you may want to stay away from high spring rates.

Is the Eibach spring one of these springs? It drops the car about 1.2 inch.

I think the pro kit is better than sportline because it drops 1 inch and that is what I'm looking for but sportline some people say it affects the car. So, I am just wondering if I go with eibach pro kit springs which drops about only 1 inch should I do anything else beside the installation although I run 18 9.5 on 225 front and 18 10.5 on 265 rare?
