Anyone running Eibach Springs?

Is anyone running Eibach springs with stock 17in wheels on their C43's?

I'd love to see pics if you have them and if you are running Bilstein shocks as well or stock, and what pads. I'm looking to lower my 4x4 a bit but would like to keep at least a 2 finger gap and be level all around.

A member here named appatula is running an Eibach/Bilstein combo on 17" stock wheels. Check post #617 in the link above.

For reference, mine is sitting on Euros/Bilstein sports, but on 18" Carlsson 1/6s. #1 pads in the front, #2 pads in the rear (needs #1)
Front is pictured first.

2 finga gap is way to high, that's euro factory height.
doesn't look good at all to me!
1 finga gap looks very sassy.

I agree with Kowalski. 1 finger gap is a perfect look. Just a reminder, the euro OE set up is with #1 pads front and rear, at least that's what I had one mine before fitting KW's.

I agree with these guys. 2 finger gap is still too high; it leaves a lot to be desired. 1 finger gap is money.
