I personally would go with one of these. Having a mod friendly dealer is important. Members on here have had warranty issues because they had aftermarket springs installed.

I installed the BMW cp springs and it definitely is stiffer and 10mm lower but the ride quality takes a hit. Similar to driving your stock car on sport setting. The cp roll bars are amazing though and well worth it.

I have the H&R springs. I really like the look and so do most other people who see the car. They are a bit stiffer but no one will notice but you. I have had no issues. German engineered and made. There is a another thread where one member really talks trash about them, but most people are in my camp. Now watch he will show up here and I will be charred piece of spring! Right Boots!

Eibach. CP Springs worsen ride quality.

So based off what was said above - Eibach is more comfortable than CP springs?
Has anyone compared the two?

Of course this comparing progressive aftermarket springs, to a CP package which includes stiffer springs and stiffer dampers.

My shop that only deals with BMWs and various ///M cars specifically recommend the eibachs. They say the ride is better than the H&Rs. Ill be putting mine on in a few weeks.

I haven't messed around with springs for F10. But speaking from E60 M5 experience, here is the list from most comfort to harshest ride.
- BMW OEM - DINAN - Eibach - H&R

I just had H&R's installed, and there is an almost imperceptible difference in ride quality in comfort mode. I'm lovin' these.
