When I installed my Eibachs, I drove around with stock front springs and Eibach rear springs for a couple weeks until I had the time to finish the job. With only rear Eibachs, the appearance is much more 'level' . . . taking into account that the car has rake in the body style itself. Only unusual appearance thing was that the front retained the high tire/fender gap, while the rear was greatly reduced However, I felt the inequality of spring rates (stock in front, Eibach in rear) yielded strange handling. When cornering (agressively) the rear suspension would tighten up, but the front would bounce, causing the rear to step out (oversteer). Can cause quite a surprise when you are used to the front-wheel drive understeer . . . then suddenly going to oversteer. Installed the front springs quickly after that.
