And eibachs are more of a drop then h-sport, so it should work

it will not rub if you lower it on springs. as everyone that knows me on the forum i have some meaty wheels and tires on my car. i am DUMPED 3in's almost. i dont rub in front and if i hit really good bump in the road then maybe the rear does. but its the plastic fender flare and its replaceable:smile:
