Eibach springs

JK-M5 · 02-06-2018, 05:21 AM

Just about to drop the car off the lift after fitting these, is there any leveling sensors or issues after fitting after market springs?

Not that I’m aware of; they will settle a bit lower than they look initially after about 500 miles.

you will have sensors for the lights but no issues.

did you go with the UK springs? be good to hear how they compare to standard. I want a bit more comfort, the roads I drive on are terrible

JK-M5 · 02-08-2018, 12:54 PM

went for Eibach pro. got them from Germany 25mm drop

Springs fitted yet?? if so how's the comfort and look??

JK-M5 · 03-07-2018, 04:25 PM

yeah been for a few weeks now, love the look very subtle and the ride is 10 times better than stock, tbh not really noticed any change in comfort. probably the best springs ive had over the years

Can anyone tell me what is the model number for the UK version of these springs?

JayZed75 · 03-07-2018, 06:22 PM

And send a pic of these installed? I'd like to compare it to the North America version

The issue I have with the UK springs can be seen in the pics. rear is awesome front is too high. Eibach UK do -25mm front and rear you can never get away from that problem unless you go with US springs.

I am fitting my UK springs as I type. Think I might only fit the front springs and see how it looks / drives

Yeah same kit as I have. M5 is around 10mm higher at the front standard. Eibach lower it by -25mm front and rear so you will still be 10mm higher at the front. H&R lower -25 front -15 rear but are not progressive rate.

American kit is -23mm front -18 rear

car looks awesome by the way
