I was on the fence about Eibach pro-kit springs with FSD dampers, but I've had enough exposure to the cases of "smash/jolt" FSD responsiveness to big potholes or big dips. They are a 7/10 based on long term ownership, as in after the excitement wears off and you're driving the car in different conditions and circumstances.
Then I reconsidered the eibach pro system which is eibach dampers (made by Sachs, the OEM BMW supplier) custom matched to pro kit springs. Tire rack had great things to say and a few members have voiced the same. I didn't see any recent posts and really hoped some members could comment on their experience, and which bumpstops they used since the eibach kit apparently does not include. Thanks! |

![]() The stock bumpstops are apparently part of the spring rate. I'll call eibach to confirm so that it's for certain and post the results. |

How much would all that cost? Probably just a bit more and you can get the Sachs coilovers .. and if you're going to spend all that time or $ to change everything out, you might as well do it right the first time

Sachs... Good for you. Buying used suspension components is a guessing game. I'll pass. And the maximum ride height on their coil overs is as low as I'd ever want to go, so it is pointless for my purposes. |
