2017 ZL1 Eibach Pro Kit Springs installed
I had a great experience once again with Eibach and Rich, Mike and the team at DynoComp in Scottsdale, Arizona that performed all the work. I talked to them by phone to make sure I received the correct springs that would not affect my existing stock suspension but would lower the car to a satisfactory height. I am extremely pleased.
Part number: E10-23-018-01-22 Some things I did while we had the wheels off: 1. Removed the large disc covers up front and installed the smaller covers. Since I live in Arizona and not my daily driver their is no need for me to have the larger disc covers. I installed the smaller disc covers that is recommended for track use so the rotors will get proper cooling. 2. I installed the ZL1 Add Ons rock guards on all four corners. This will be discussed in another thread and a complete build thread I will start on my car for forum friends to follow. 3. Since we should do a wheel alingment after replacing springs I went ahead and did the ZL1 Chevrolet specs for camber, caster and toe for track setup. Here are the specs: https://my.chevrolet.com/content/dam...tion-guide.pdf Per Eibach I should see a one inch drop in front and half inch drop in back. When we did the conversion at DynoComp in Scottsdale, AZ we were surprised how much better the car looked and it did look like it dropped the car significantly more than what Eibach stated but as you can see by the images Eibach was on point.

Exactly what I have been looking at doing... have you noticed much difference in ride/handling? Might be too soon to answer that since you just had them installed...

I have only driven it about 30 miles since completed and honestly can not tell the difference but I always drive it in track mode for the exhaust note until my cat back comes in. At least in track mode no difference.

Part number from my receipt is in initial thread. I can verify next week when I get to my office if it is the same part number which I am sure it will be.

Looks great. And I love the pin strip around the splitters and side skirts - stunning, plus the bonnet and roof wrap. Did you think about wrapping the rear spoiler, too?

very sharp looking car. Somehow you were able to pull off white, 2 shades of black, and red without it looking too busy. That, my friend, takes skills.
