I posted this before in "suspension" but didn't get much response so here goes again...

I've had a set of Eibachs for a short periond of time. (Don't stone me but I wasn't able to afford new struts too). This is also the first FWD vehicle/newer chasis that I've had lowered.

I love the changes in handling and balance. Feels pretty solid at the limit. Also rides better than stock in day to day driving. A couple of things are bugging me...

The on-centre response seems to be slower than the stock setup. Small flicks of the wheel don't seem to elicit as large a response as stock. Steering feel is much lighter. (almost like more boost)

Slow speed 90 degree turns seem to require almost a quarter turn more input from the steering wheel.

Niggly things I know...

Are these changes what to expect with the changes in drive/supension angles?

Any thoughts, comments, or tips??

Yes, I did have it aligned after. When I asked the shop they couldn't provide much of an answer because of their limited svt contour experience.

Thanks a bunch
