Default Clayton 3.5 coils or Eibach 3.5 coils?

I was thinking about replacing my sagging Zone coils. ARB bumpers, winch and full size spare are too much. Has anyone used Clayton coils? I also came across some eibach coils that are about the same price. Both are 3.5 inch. Any suggestions? Main concern being sag.Click image for larger version

I run the clayton 3.5 system and am very happy so far. It's only been 6-7months.

I am open to all options. I can't really find anything online for Eibach coils for JKs. Everyone has pretty good things to say about Clayton. I need to look into Rock Krawler some I guess. Someone also has a set of used Rusty's 3.25 on the forum for 150...

I'm running the Eibach 3.5" kit. I have PSC bumpers and an 8K winch on the front. I have not had an issue with sag and the ride is incredible - better than the stock Rubicon springs.


**FULL DISCLOSURE**
My kit was provided by Eibach at no cost to me.

Does Eibach sell just the springs (3.5")?

Yes they do sell the springs separately.

I concur with the above - a good friend and long time jeeper recently picked up a new '15 2dr and put the 2.5" Eibach lift on it; by far the best riding jeep I have ever been in. Can't attest to how it handles or performs off road, but on road the ride quality really was quite impressive.

How or where would you order them, since they are not listed in any of the online shops/catalogues separately...?
