For Chanukkah I'm getting a large present.

1 Big Gift > 8 smaller gifts.

I'm looking at the Eibach Sportline Springs and have a question:

Will I need anything else to go with them?

I have the SPC kit, Skunk2 makes a kit but I believe some people complained that there squeaked. I would go with whichever is less expensive.

Oh yeah, and don't forget to get an alignment.

I don't know if my skunk2 camber arms are the one that got updated but they never squeak. Skunk2 fixed the problem already so you have nothing to worry about.

Looks like Hannukah Harry is going to be good to you this year...

I am only going to be getting Hannukah gelt and latke boxes...

BTW, Sportlines are the way to go. I got a ride in Sherpa's Comptech S/C Habi FG2 and he had a 2" drop on Sportlines. The car rode smoother than my stock FA5 and the handling was crazy good around the turns. Great choice!

My Skunk 2 camber kits have never squeaked at all.

2" drop on sportlines, how did he accomplish that?
