Thanks! Just a little lower, approximately 10mm, if that, drop compared to M-sport for me! Are you thinking on going down that route?
Thank you!! I just want it to sit a little more flush with the tyres! |

Having said that, I've parked a little close to curbs (habit with company vehicle) on a couple occasions & my front bumper has mounted. Not a very nice sound so I can only imagine what would happen going lower! |

I've just fitted Eibach Pros to my e92 that had sport stuff on as standard.
It is lower than regular sport - mainly on the front, where I would estimate it sits about 10-15mm lower a day or so after I did it. Rear doesn't look much different IMO. Dont' forget the springs take a good few hundred miles to settle down a little, so the immediate difference isn't that noticeable. Mine looks a little lower still now it's on its second week on the Eibachs. If you compare it side by side to a car with M-Sport suspension you'll see the difference - I did, when I called into BMW near me the other day. It's worth doing if you want the arch gap to look a lot better. If you're after the "slammed on it's arse" look, then coilovers are the way to go, as crazy drops by changing just the springs on standard shocks will kill them in no time. Any lower than 30-40mm is asking for trouble. |

My previous wheels were 18" but now that I have 19's with eibachs, I'm thinking just another few 1-1.5 cm drop would have made this perfect. I guess our options are H&R or coilovers! I live in a very hilly areas with plentiful amount of speed bumps, and that scrape sound makes me me jitter too! ![]() |
