Those arms are rubber. Not aluminum.

The first thing he bought on amazon were the ball bearings you speak of. They in fact look identical.

With that said. You can find many manufacturers of these on eBay for far less than $200/ set. But if my eibach didn't come with ones I would have done this in a heart beat! Also well known about the eibachs in US vs Europe. Many threads on how to get the German eibachs so you don't have to buy all 4 springs. Oh well Too late now. Glad you got it all working.

What measurement did you set to get that height. Looks pretty low. How's the bounciness? Mine was awful at that height in the rear.
