Default What is the official drop of Eibach Pro-Kits???

I have plenty of sources saying the F and R drops are both 1.4" yet on their official website it says 1.2".

Tire Rack's official measurement: http://www.tirerack.com/suspension/s...140&perfCode=S

Reputed eBay seller's measurement:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/EIBAC...spagenameZWDVW

The official sticky also states that it is 1.2 x 1.2: https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=89766

I'm confused!

the numbers that they give u aren't always exactly on point. the trd springs range from 1" on some sites to 1.2" on other sites. when i measured mine, the drop was a little over 1.3". people had asked me what springs i was using, and when i told the trd, they were surprised because they didn't think the trds would be that low. just remember-machines aren't perfect, the slightest deviance will affect the outcome. i had received an s-pipe a while back which was significantly off-it just wasn't long enough, had enough clearance, or anything. the original batch that was sent out by the company seemed to fit fine, but i guess the batch i along with several other people got just didn't seem to fit at all. it wasn't because they changed anything, it was because they hadn't recalibrated or double checked to make sure each piece coming from the bender was the exact proper measurement.

Maybe the spring itself is 1.2 shorter than stock but the final ride height settles to 1.4. I have my set waiting in my friends shop (hes on vacation in FLA , that SOB). Should be puttin them on around Jan 20..I'll keep ya posted.

it's going to be different, based on the weight of the car and how hard you drive it.
