Ya or some sort of QC issue or something. 450lb-600lb is not excessive whatsoever. I had a rear koni s/a leak badly. I was only running 525 & 550. It happens.
Agreed. I do not see spring rate really having much effect on the life of a shock seal.
Eibach was polite but firm. The warranty is expired. A rear shock is $196.00. Because I have proof of original purchase they reduced it to $111.00.
Sucks your shocks blew out.at least you can by replacements.when mine blew they wouldn't sell me just the rear shocks.i had to buy the whole set up,front and rear.so instead I bought some koni adjustables.
After continually emailing me for the last week, informing me over and over that my order is in process, yesterday they cancelled my order stating the shocks are "no longer available."
Pretty disappointing, considering they are still selling the complete kit. Anyone considering the Eibach kit should be aware that parts are not made available.
My M3 wagon came on the EIbach coilovers. I thought they were pretty bad, before longevity was factored in. I sold them pretty quickly-- now running Dinan springs with Koni yellows (TCK konis in the rear) and it's waaaayyyyy better.
At high speed, in particular, the car never settled down on the Eibach coilovers. Felt borderline dangerous.
