Eibach’s 992.1 911 Turbo S PRO-KIT: Check PASM and Clearance Before You Order
Eibach has announced a Special Edition PRO-KIT spring application for the 2020–2024 Porsche 911 Turbo S (992.1). Its current product listing identifies part E10-72-022-01-22 as a set of four springs and lists an approximately 1.0-inch front and 0.9-inch rear drop for the Turbo S AWD application with PASM. Those are manufacturer application figures, not a promise of the final measured height on every car.
For owners considering a lower stance, the most important part of this announcement may be the application detail. Eibach's broader release note discusses compatibility with factory electronic or standard dampers, but the specific Turbo S product page says this part was tested with factory dampers and is designed for PASM electronic dampers only. It also says the application can include Porsche's Front-Axle Lift system. Use the exact product-page application and your vehicle's build information rather than treating every 992.1 911 as interchangeable.
Four checks before buying lowering springs
- Confirm the car, not just the badge. Record model year, Turbo versus Turbo S, AWD configuration and the installed suspension options. Eibach lists a different reduction for a 2020–2024 911 Turbo AWD with PASM Sport under the same part number: about 0.6 inch front and 0.5 inch rear. Verify the selected application before assuming the Turbo S figures apply.
- Check the complete wheel-and-tire package. Note tire size, wheel width, offset and any spacers. A reduced static fender gap does not establish clearance during steering, bump travel or suspension compression. Inspect the actual car, particularly if its wheels or tires differ from factory specification.
- Plan for real-world approach angles. A lower ride height changes the clearance available at driveways, ramps and lift points. Front-Axle Lift compatibility does not mean the lift system eliminates every contact risk. Measure your current heights and use the manufacturer's installation guidance.
- Budget for installation verification. Have a qualified technician follow Eibach's instructions, check the car at settled ride height, and perform the appropriate alignment and clearance inspection. If the vehicle has any driver-assistance or chassis systems affected by the work, follow the vehicle maker's service procedures rather than assuming an alignment alone completes the job.

The takeaway is straightforward: the new spring application is a reason to verify equipment and installation requirements before clicking “buy,” not a universal 911 fitment claim. If you are planning a 992.1 suspension build, contact SMG Speed Shop at sales@smgspeed.com to help check the exact part application and the rest of the wheel, tire and service plan. Confirm current price and availability separately before ordering.
