Im looking for some springs to lower my outback, and the eibach ones are 215. They lower the car 1.5 inches according to the site. Does anyone have a pic of these springs on the car, or anysuggestions. Im trying to get it lowered as much as i can under 300. Any suggestions

I'm not sure if you'll find anyone on here that have those springs since, you know, this site is mostly 95-99 legacys. I'd say eibach would be good. If you can find H&R springs I'd use those over eibachs. I've heard better things about the H&R's than the eibach's.

You might have to look on other sites to find someone with the springs you're looking for your car.

Also, is the 1.5" lowering for a normal legacy or the outback?? I'd think it would be for the stock legacy. I've never seen springs labeled for an outback, so I'd say it would probably lower it about 2-3 inches!

actually i lied, there ARE a few cars like yours here!

Like this one, pdawg's legacy riding on bilstein struts with H&R springs. I assume eibach springs are similar to this.
Here's his member's ride thread --> https://sl-i.net/FORUM/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=11&hilit=pdawg

There are before and after pics there.

Bilsteins are awesome!!! I love mine.

Oh yeah, I see now. So you'd go from your outback height to a stock legacy L height I suppose.
You could probably get springs for non-outback legacy's as well. I'm pretty sure they would fit.

Yea, one guy said it should make it a little lower than a stock legacy. Which compared to how it looks now, will look sooo nice. I dont want it slammed since i live in the moutains.
