On your 90 300E, what spring pad did you use with your Eibach? After it was lowered and aligned, did you have to install a camber kit for the rear or was your camber O.K.

I've read that MOST using the HR springs NEEDED a camber kit for alignment. I haven't read much about the Eibach though. I am thinking about lowering my 86 300E with the Eibach, but I don't want the headache of the camber beign out of wack.

My mechanic is also advising me to just leave the car alone. But as someone posted, I don't see the problem as long as the car is aligned to "normal" range. Lowering definitely makes the car look good. I don't want it too low, but I want it (what I call) "BMW" low (maybe a finger or two between the tire and the fender).

I'd like to see pics of your car if you have any.
