Hey All,
I lifted my last 5th Gen with an ICON stage 1 (2013). I spoke with Mike from Exitoffroad and he was super helpful (dobinsons) but I decided to go another direction. All the reviews of the Eibach pro-2 were really positive, so I pulled the trigger, and installed last Friday.
Short version is that they are ok, def more comfortable around town low speed, but at high speed 80+ they wander around some and don't feel very sure footed. Keep in mind this is compared to ICONs...
I believe the stock are 580lb coils, Eibach are 600, and Icons are 650. This is prob. why they feel less planted at high speed. I don't think I can justify dumping the Eibachs, but I'll prob. run them for a year or two & get some mileage out of them, then swap to Icon.
FYI - Autozone has a monthly 20% off coupon, and they stock Eibach, and sometimes Icon if you are looking for a good price.
SETUP: Eibach Pro-2 in the front, eibach shock rear, Icon 200lb coils in the rear, 285/70r17 duratrac RT
