Wagon Lowering Springs Info & Pic Request....Eibach & Tein
Hi guys,
I am looking at lowering my wagon with some springs on the stock struts as they are still healthy.
For a Subaru newbie after doing about a weeks worth of research it seems like quite a minefield with what springs to use. I have narrowed it down to Eibach Pro Kit & either Tein S or H Techs but I have the below issues that's stopping me.......
I have seen loads of Americans moaning about the rear of the wagons sitting lower (sagging) after installing Eibach Pro springs but I have not found one person in the UK moaning about this or needing the extra spacers the Americans install. Is there any Wagon owners on here with the Eibach springs???
Also the Tein springs seem to sit nice but again mostly the US guys seem to say they kill shocks very quickly being a 40mm drop...again is this true?
I'd greatly appreciate any wagon owners with either of the above springs input or pictures
Thanks
Tom
EDIT: I forgot to mention I have a Bugeye Wagon.

Hi mate,
Thank you for that picture that's bang on the look I am after. Any chance you know the part number for the springs you have? I don't want to buy the wrong ones.
