Eibach spring part number for 997.1 cab

Just wanted to say hi as I am new to this forum. I've been browsing through the pages for a couple of weeks now, it's truly amazing how much knowledge one could amass by reading the various posts in here, kudos to all the people sharing their know how.

For my first post I would like to ask what the Eibach pro kit part number for my new to me 997.1 c2 cab would be, I've come across 7217.140 which is for the c2 coupe but nothing for the cab.

Secondly, has anyone here had any experience with ICHIBA wheel spacers?

Thanks in advance

I called Eibach sales directly and they stated they don't have any springs for a 997 C2 cab. I asked the guy if the coupe springs are compatible with the cab and he said no.

Is there anyone out there with a cabrio riding on eibach springs?

As far as I know there should be no difference in the suspension. I have heard of a lot of cabs on this board using Eibach.

I had Eibachs before I went with coil-overs.......in fact they are still here attached to the stock struts.

FYI...the Eibachs DO NOT lower the car much at all...!

Yes, Eibachs lower the car enough

Eibach lowering springs will lower the car One inch.
This is plenty!! I have this set up in my base 997
and I scrape the underside frequently on driveways
unless I am very very careful..Do not lower any more
than One inch in my opinion. BTW, my car looks real
good at this lowered height.
