For the guys with the newer clubsports

After brainstorming with Slicer a little bit, I have a similar solution for you since the spring rate and travel is different from the older kits.

The original new Kw clubsport spring has a spring rate of 110-170 and a travel travel of 86mm, and it is 6.6" Long (170mm).

I just got off the phone with Eibach, and the travel of the HRS-140-60-110 (110nmm, 140mm long) is also 86mm. This is due to the wire diameter and coil spacing being smaller.

So effectively, you can change to this shorter spring and gain 1.1" of clearance away from the tire, and technically not change the way the damper responds to the spring at all. They have the same exact spring travel. Which, is freakin awesome.

You can also scoop up a set of these springs for less than 140 shipped from Jegs. http://www.jegs.com/i/Eibach/369/140-60-0110/10002/-1

I will be installing mine this week, will report back if there are any issues (which i cannot see happening). Thought I would share!
