Fiesta MK8 and Eibach/Ford lowered spring

Hi everyone,

I was thinking to improve the ride quality of my Fiesta ST Line MK8, and since I don't plan to own it more than 3 years ( I'm already on the 2nd ), I don't want to splurge on a new set of race suspensions.

Here's why I was thinking about mounting the following:

Has anyone mounted them on their cars? Pros and cons? I want to have a more sporty ride, that's it!

Thanks in advance to everyone!

    The page you posted is in Italian but from I can see they're for the ST which I don't think will fit on your car as they'll be different suspension setups.

    I know Eibach do some springs that lower the car by 25-30mm on the front and 35mm at the rear. They should make the ride a little more stable.

    Thanks! Actually, I think something got lost in the translation between english and Italian website, since the part is stated as compatible with any MK8 ST Line.

    Anyone who has already lowered the car? Any benefit of a lower height?

    Hmm I could definitely make out 1.5 litre ST, which has different springs to your ST-Line.
