Probably cause they cost a little more than $200 like I paid for these springs.
Ok, SOMEBODY give me a hint with these Spool springs ...

Okay, I got my springs and installed them tonight...Same as a few others already said, these look exactly like the ones I just took off. Yeah, these are designed the right way now, but the drop in the rear is still almost stock height. I loaded it full of crap and drove around for a long time. No luck yet. It settled less than 1/4 of an inch. We'll see if we can get some more out of it tomorrow...
isnt this some kind of safety issue also since when the back is high the headlights dont shine as far down the road as they used to?

man some people don't have any patience. Were you one of the first 10 that he said would be recieving theirs first? If not you're probably one of the last five like me and he hasn't started shipping them out yet. They will be here.
dude, no joke at all, put the fronts in and leave the stock rear springs if you have the MSP.
i SWEAR my stock rears were lower than these - at the very worst they were the same height.
and he said these springs dont need to settle, so this is as low and they're gonna go.....
anyone have pics of eibachs?

It seems that everyone talking about the springs not being as low as they thought they'd be are MSP owners. Should I assume that the drop will be more dramatic on my P5 since it is taller to begin with?
yes I have noticed that also. my P5 is lower than these MSPs' I have seen in this thread. My rear fender is about 2 inches above the tires, but my rear fenders have a lower point I think than sedans'. I really look at the body molding as a way of telling how low a vehicle is front/to back. My body molding goes uphill but my fenders in the rear tend to make the car look more level. I have planned now for a few weeks to take my rear spools out and cut one coil out of the top dead coils and re-install them. I keep putting if off for work and family reasons ( also don't feel like messin with the end-links) but one day I am going to do it. I only need about another .5 to .75 in the rear to make it look nice to me
so eventually I will get around to doing it. I know if I were an MSP owner and had not installed my new rear spools, I would cut them before i installed them.....just a thought. Later on guys, be interesting to see how all this works out
