Starting the build on my 2020 ST with lowering springs from Eibach.



Before lowering:

Front - 33.25” ground to fender


Rear - 33.5”


After Lowering:

Front - 31.25”


Rear - 31.75”


Needs a wash but profile picture:

Looks Good! Are you in the Boston area? I'm down in SE Mass around Fall River.

Nice pics! Just a suggestion, if you could take your measurements from the hub center to the wheel lip edge that will give everyone no matter what wheel/tire combo they’re running the same measurement. Thanks!

You’re only about 20 minutes from me. We should meet up some time.

Looks good man. I’m just over the border in NH. Roughly an hour or so from Gillette. I have H&R’s sitting on my garage floor. I’m just lazy.

The rears are a bitch so just be prepared for that. Outcome is worth the aggravation though.

Just installed the S&B CAI and TurboSmart BOV. Quick video below with the before/after. I'll also try to get pictures of the install later.

Sounds good. Looks good too! Now you need the FenFab charge pipes to really dress it up.

I’ve definitely been looking at those. Might line those up with a Steeda intercooler when the time comes.

Love the S&B CAI.

Look at getting Hood struts. Easy upgrade for the price.

I did realize that Eibachs lower that much. I went with h&r and after 200mi. the drop is 1.3f and 1.5r. Looks like eibachs dropped full 2" in the front.
Looks great thought!

Rears are super easy if you have internal spring compressor. Took me and my son 45min to do both sides this weekend.
1. Jack the entire rear end in the middle, remove tires and sway bar links on both sides
2. Set jack stands under LCAs and lower the jack letting both springs fully compress
3. Insert internal spring copressors into the springs and set them snug. You can insert compressor bolt through the opening on the bottom of the control arm
4. Jack the car back up. Springs will pop right out.
5. Compress new springs to the same height as removed original (compressed) springs. Pop them in.
6. Reverse steps 1,2,3
Done!
