Do Eibach's still require modification?

Wondering if the eibach springs still need to have tubing put on the top coils to prevent them from hitting and making the clunking noise. I seen someone said that they were supposedly redesigned to prevent this but does anyone know for sure? Also do they require cutting the bump stops? I am referring to only the springs, not the coilover kit.

Their has been no change the Eibach pro springs. They are progresive type springs and for the rear ones which have five coils at the top "they areclose to each other" its a good idea to install a thin rubber tubing on the top five just to be safe.Maybe skip the the top one if you want.

ECS:due to the sensitivity of ECS struts the strut piston should not be allowed to turn during piston top nut removal/tightening.

I just installed eibach springs and whenever I turn the wheel all the way right or left I hear a creeking noise and over hard bumps the struts will bang or something. I just ordered rubber gaskets from mitsubishi that go inbetween the strut and spring im hoping this will work. And for some reason the front didnt drop as low as the rear and they have been on for about a week

That's just the way they are, the front will look a little higher than the rear.

I installed the Eibach without any rubber gaskets or anything and I don't have any problems at all... Also the back is lower than the front by a little bit
