Advise on springs.

[Dark Sprite]

Literally just had my car lowered yesterday on Eibach sportiness, the car is a 2025 GT Premium, put the 20” Ferrada wheels on 3 days ago aswel, was very conscious of the offset and front tyre size…

But no rubbing, clears the brakes and it was 100% needed..!

This has to be one of the best looking S650s I've seen, I haven't seen bronze on white before, it looks excellent and the stance and filling of the wheel wells is perfect! How is the ride on 20s compared to the OEM 19s?

And which front splitter is that?

Hey Dark Sprite,

I really appreciate you saying that, ty sir.!

the front splitter is from American Muscle, it’s not carbon just a $200 splitter, I feel better about destroying $200 than I do $1k+ lol

it’s on Eibach Sportline springs, perfect drop

I done my research with the tyres, 255 35 20 fronts, no rubbing over bumps or full lock

The rear have loads of space, I went with 305 30 20 and like you said, fill the gaps perfectly

the ride is a little firmer but not bad at all, feels so much more planted and I can get over speed bumps with 0 issues

I’m very happy indeed, only had the car 3 weeks, she is looking good

I went with the RTR springs on this 24 GT non- PP. Rides great handles awesome. One inch drop in front 0.8 ish in the rear. That photo was right after i put the springs on. springs have settled and sits a bit lower now. has 19 inch rims with factory tires.

Car and stance looks perfect.
Exactly what I’m going after.

Love all the cars on this thread, I’ve since added side skirts, helps a lot aswel with stance

I’ve also got rid of the yellow and red lights, have not got a good pic of that yet tho

Sits perfect, what side skirts are those and were they easy to fit (assuming you did it yourself)?

I have done all the work buddy, I enjoy it lol

they were from American Muscle, very easy to install

get her washed once this rain passes, think the weather has to get better from Saturday, I’m ready for winter to be over.!

For those that added springs was a rear alignment necessary? There is another car like mine where i work and he is lowered and i have noticed that his car appears to have a lot of negative camber in the rear.

I got a 4 wheel alignment after, i ordered my wheel and tyres sizes deliberately, so as not to need camber bolts etc, however for tyre wear you should always get an alignment when messing with suspension

Alignment would be recommended for sure. I will be aligning mine once the car comes out of hibernation and i throw the springs on
