Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

If I also have to change the shocks, then I may as well go with PSS9s.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

7 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1Original post

I have seen a number of suspension threads for the CS, but about the standard C. Assuming that I get a C without PASM, I will be looking to lower it by just 1" or so. I am NOT looking for different ride characteristic - I just want it to look better. If there was a Porsche ROW suspension that would do that - it would be at the top of the list. Can someone help me with the springs that are available, and their rates and lowering amount? I know that Eibach offers something that is listed as lowering the car by 1.3", that is little more than I was looking for. I also do not know what the rates are. If I also have to change the shocks, then I may as well go with PSS9s. (Although I am not a Bilstein fan, I understand that Porsche used them for the PASM system - so they should know what they are doing here.) So again. Any springs that offer moderate lowering and are designed to work with the OEM non PASM shocks? I am not looking for better "performance", but I definitely do not want it to be worse! Anything that is Porsche approved?

Tomasz, The Eibach Pro-Kit Part#: E10-72-008-22 Cayman / S (Says so on the label - do not let them give you Boxster Springs) Is perfect, around $550 plus fitting (7 hours)and you use your standard currently fitted shocks. 30mm 1.3" is perfect especially if you have 18" wheels or smaller. The ride is a tad stiffer, but not harsh -

POST 3Original post

You cannot install lowering springs alone without changing the ride characteristics. IMO, changing springs alone inevitably compromises what is a very well designed & engineered suspension system . A better, albeit more expensive, way to lower the car would be with PSS9s or other coilovers.

POST 4Original post

I lowered my pasm Cayman S last week with Cargraphic springs , they have lowered the car 20mm all round , it looks loads better and I can't tell any difference in the ride quality , I will take a couple of pics tomorrow and post them in this thread (if its not raining again !)

POST 5Original post

Does this mean that it is 20mm lower than the original PASM height, therefore 30mm lower than a non-PASM car? Look forward to the pic.

POST 6Original post

Pics ! Before After First pic was taken a couple of months ago when I first got the car , I should also mention the car has Booth spacers fitted , 15mm on the rear and 6mm on the front

POST 7Original post

Thanks Thank you. I did see the Eibach kit, and I am not ready to go that low. I know that it will look great, but little too low for snow, etc. I will keep looking and let everyone know what I pick.
