Hello bros,
What is the best absorbers to be paired with eibach pro kit springs on a myvi 1.3 se 2013?
Im thinking of sticking to the stock kyb absorbers as eibach claims their springs can be paired with stock absorbers. Any other recommendations and suggestions? Thank you.

Thank you. well i did use Eibach spring last time.. use it in vios dugong and i use it with stock spring, and the result is very bouncy ride especially at front.. rear no problem so what i did after that to solve the problem is hardened the front absorber by injected it.. then only the ride becoming a lot better..

Just try first with stock absorbers and see how it feels and handles. I've also used Eibach spring before with stock absorbers and still seem ok but of course it would not be as soft as std. Ideally should be paired with shorter stroke sport absorbers.

I don't have Eibach, but according to many people on Elantra 2000-2006 they find Eibach springs paired with KYB Excel G is sufficiently good balance between comfort and handling.

Well the right term maybe not heavy duty (I thought about SUV absorbers if heavy duty) but more like sport absorbers. If that's the case then should be fine. Like already mentioned above, Bilstein is one good example that normally goes well with sport springs such as Eibach. Other choice maybe KONI, but they're not cheap. Not sure though about D2 or Proride. My suggestion is if your std absorbers still in good condition, then just try use first and see how it feels combined with Eibach. If it feels good already then no need to waste more money changing absorbers.

I
Dont tink Bilstein or Koni makes em for the myvi.. If avlbl oso, price might not be ideal..
I hv used stock shoxs wif a 2006 Myvi wif eibach lowered springs - no complaints but changed to 'used' Hot Bits absorbers which was firmer but not really designed for the eibachs.. Firmer than stock.. Used tis until sold it off in 2012..
