I have had mine for years. Love them. Make sure they are installed in the same orientation and rear perches are lowered or it won't look right. I also recommend getting a DSC controller first if you're chasing performance; jump to springs if it's purely aesthetics. I see this is your first post so do a search and there is a LOT of info on this. Progressive springs are fantastic - yes, coilovers are better and progressive springs (even teacart - made by eibach) are garbage for the track but even for aggressive mountain driving I love them. My 991 is incredibly comfortable with the eibachs but.... by other cars are an SUV and a very stiff 987 so my saying "comfortable" is completely subjective. My opinion is about the summation of responses you'll get here with some outliers but it's been discussed a few times.

Thank you, Garfunkle. My 991.1 GTS is quite special, black, 7-sp, with red stitching everywhere, just 15k miles in 5 years, quite a beautiful car... I think it has PASM, I never understood what SPASM, perhaps you can illuminate me. I would hate to do something wrong. I had the Eibach Pro springs on my 997.1 S cabrio and they were just perfect. Tank you again. Paolo

I never track my car (a cabriolet) but like to drive fast. I understand that the 991.1 GTS cabrio is 10 mm higher than the 991.1 GTS coupe' (which is 20 mm lower than standard). To answer your question, I am trying to lower my car for better look and get a little sharper cornering. Changing just the springs to Eibach Pro did it very well for my last 2011 997.2 S cabrio. I would like to make sure I can do the same for my 991.1 GTS cabrio: changing the springs and nothing more. Your advice will be much appreciated.
