Exclamation Anyone had any issues reinstalling stock springs after M HAS

I was told that when you install the M HAS you "shrink" the shock tube a bit and then if you try to reinstall stock springs, the stock perch sinks.

Has anyone experienced any issues with this?

Just curious as to why you would switch from the Mperformance HAS to eibach springs?

Should clarify, I have KW HAS. I want a look that is somewhere between stock and slammed. I'm hoping that the Eibach are a little more comfortable (from what I've read they feel closer to stock). KW is great, but I'm older now and want basically OEM Plus which is what the Eibach (Euro) to be.

So even KW at the highest setting is lower than Eibach?

I have a feeling it's as much about spring rates as it is height. I'm considering doing exactly the same thing.
