Eibach Pro springs..will I see any difference?

I have a 4 door SS/NA and I do not like the wheel gap at the back. I am considering the Eibach Pro springs. Will this reduce the gap on the SS/NA models? I drive about 100 miles a day and this is my DD and I have seen where the sportlines wear out the struts prematurely.

Bottom line will this set of springs reduce the rear wheel gap any more than the regular suspension on the SS/NA?

Any pictures on a sedan would be great.

I am interested in this as well, the difference in ride height should be the same for a SS/NA coupe.

Keep in mind your wheel gap will be greater due to the fact that glen229 is running 18" wheels

Pro kit springs have no drop at all from stock. If you want lower get sportlines, SSC, Pedders, etc.

Also for the O.P., maybe this will help although there are no NA's it gives me a good idea. I know it is nice to see your exact body style but what can ya do.
