OK so I'm about to buy some eibachs for my 2007 1.9cdti Sri
hatch
To summarise if you want the front to sit slightly higher people are going for the Pro-Kit (E10-65-007-02-22)
If you want it lower on the front you go for Pro-Kit (E10-65-007-01-22), even though the axle weight of the car is1065kg and the eibach (E10-65-007-01-22) springs are rated at max 1060kg is this correct?

I went for the correct ones, i think @RichM tried the lighter duty front ones. Also depends on what wheels you have.

I went for the lighter rated springs on my old cdti and it sat great. Same arch gap on front and rear

Has anyone measured the ride height, wheel centre to arch on the different springs?

9 years on from my original post..........
https://www.vectra-c.com/forum/showt...-Ebay-Bargain!
Broke a rear spring so needed to find replacement, can get rear set for £100 but decided to get set for £140. The upto 1060kg kit always looks good fitted but over a year or 2 a felt that they were a little low and the amount of time a scraped the vxr bumper was too much.....drop was atleast -25mm if not more instead of -15mm. So i've picked up the upto 1135 kg kit and fitted rears to get thru mot. Going to fit fronts with new shocks all round as had her 10 years and 100k. Hopefully the 1135 kg kit will settle OK and not be nose up.....it might take a couple years but hopefully the vxr bumper will survive too.
