H&R and Eibach spring kits bumpstops?

Do the springs come with revised bumpstops? My friend bought eibach sportline springs for his focus ST and it came with new bumpstops. I haven't heard of springs coming with bumpstops for our cars, except for dinan. Anybody with springs know what came in the box?

I cannot speak for H&R's but the Eibach pro-kit did not come with bump stops, and I do not see why they would need to.

H&R sport springs use the stock bump stops.

Isn't it important for retaining stock travel and not bottoming out?

Eibach says they design their springs to work with the stock bump stops. My guess is it's because of the progressive rate springs and the fact they do not lower the car as much as some springs do.

I have zero problems on Bilstein B8 sport shocks and Eibach pro-kit. Love them.

No wheels yet. I am doing JB4 stage 2 and a charge pipe next. Then m-sport retrofit and then wheels. I took some pics and will write up a proper review in the next day or two. Been slammed!

You will love the suspension! Perfect drop and rides great.

Nice! Unfortunately the bilstein b8 shocks are back ordered until March. So I have a long time to install them.
