Eibach Springs offers 2 sets of lowering springs for 07+ Honda Fits. They're both progressive rates, meaning the actual spring rate varies constantly with road conditions. When you're cruising on the street or highway, the ride quality is no different than OEM. As road conditions suffer, i.e. bumps, potholes, etc., the springs stiffen up as it compresses, allowing for stiffer suspension when you need it. This also applies with cornering, the harder you turn, the stiffer the springs get.
Prices do not include shipping, please contact me with your zipcode to calculate actual shipping costs.
California buyers please add 8.25% sales tax.

No more Crotas. . .
Upgraded shocks/struts are recommended, but not required for a while. As with all lowering springs, lowering the car puts more stress on the shocks/struts than compared to factory parts. Although these lower the car, the factory shocks/struts handle it quite well. I'm on a set of lowering springs, progressive rate which is same as Eibach, and has the same drop height. I've been on them for over a year, and i've daily driven it every day. I've put about 25k miles on it since i've installed them, and till this day it rides like day 1. I'm sure later in the future when companies like Tokico, KYB, or Koni produce upgraded shocks/struts meant for lowering springs, paired together would make a great match.

i would think that with the lowered springs no matter waht brand or drop that you could go to somewhere like pepboys, autozone, advance auto or an local auto parts store and pick up a strut and shock that is approx the drop size shorter...

check out the spring rates comparison thread tyler, there is some good info in there, including a bit that shows that the eibachs actually lower quite a bit more than advertised.
I don't have pictures personally of the cars lowered, but I know there are a couple out there, so feel free to post guys!
This is my car with the sportlines. Pic taken 10 minutes after install - not settled yet.

Only simple linear springs have a spring rate. A sophisticated progressive Eibach Pro-Kit spring has a load/deflection characteristic. The special design parameters are only accessable through Eibach Desk-Tech Database to Eibach´s exclusive partners.
