Eibach Sportline.

Im looking at getting some eibach sportlines for my fit. I'm wondering will my tires rub? I have 205-50-16 falken Ziex ZE-912 on stock sport rims. Also would camber bolts be necessary?

A basic suggestion is to buy Swifts. They are a more refined spring with better ride and a great look. That said, if you are settled on Tein or Eibach as you suggested in another thread, then nevermind what I just said.

As for your question, you shouldn't rub on just 205s on stock wheels. Camber bolts you won't really know for sure until you go to have an alignment done.

How is Swift a more "refined" spring? Care to elaborate on your personal experiences?

To the OP, wheel fitment will be fine with the Sportline springs. Camber bolts are not necessary.

They feel more controllable and provide more of an increase in handling than most other springs I have tried. They also seem to be of a higher quality in general.
