I just went to buy some eibach springs which I thought were 45-50mm all round but I was told that they are 45-50mm at front and 25mm at rear  Has anyone got these? It doesn't sound right to me but the bloke in the halfords phoned eibach and thats what they told him.
Is it true?
Cheers
Dan

I have 30mm Eibach springs fitted to my Corsa C SRi. Looks as though it sits down 30mm front and back. Top of back tyre sits level with the arch.
(Wheels are standard 15")
I would strong advise upgrading the shocks if you are going lower than 30mm.

My Eibach Kit is 30mm, although I'd say it more like 40mm at the front. Probably right with 30mm at the back.
You can get the 50mm 'streetline' kit or somthing like that.
Not heard of a mixture of the two heights though. You could always ask Eibach yourself. there based about 5 minutes from my house

seen a couple of corsas with einbach springs, i agree with the 40 /20 split, but then it levels out the car cos corsa front archs sit higher anyway, more noticable when u put wider wheels on, its best for handling though.
