As the title says? Do they?
I've got some Eibach's fitted to my Arosa and they've done 80k with me and they are 2nd hand to me.
I'm thinking about either buying new springs (Eibach or H&R) or a rear anti roll bar for the car. What are peoples thoughts on this?
Oh and i've just fitted some Bilstien B4 dampers so no to the idea of coilovers.

Probably a good idea tbh.
A common problem on older bmw's (E46 and my Z4) is that the springs snap.

Well id think they would wear over time, but after 80k you'd know about the way more than us.
If there a reason you're changing? Is it a Corsa b or c?

It's a Corsa Arosa generation. Ben that's not just common on beemers, common on most cars. Fiesta had a broken front spring when I got it. As did my Clio. And I have my dads rear ones on his vectra to change this weekend!

Well, the Seat Arosa has now done just over 140k. As I thought things might be getting tired, I fitted new bottom arms, drop links, bushes, track rod ends and new dampers.
I just want to make sure everything is as tight as it was when it was new. It'll have 200k on the clock with me, so want to make sure it lasts.
