M4 Competition Lowering Springs (F82 2019)
Hi all
Im in the UK and looking at lowering my M4 to fill the arches a bit better. I have seen several options such as Eibach Pro Kit, MMR, H&R etc. but wanted to ask what others may have chosen. Eibach Pro Kit says it will lower 20mm front and 5-10mm rear but that doesn’t seem a lot at the back. MMR says 20mm front and 25mm at the rear which appears to be a better option. So, any members have any experience with these or any other spring options? Many thanks folks |

I fitted a set of Automotive passion front arch guards to mine with 10mm spacers. I’m not a huge fan of the look but they are subtle enough and you can literally hear stones pinging off them when your driving down country lanes. My car only has 5k miles on it and I’m planning to keep it as mint as possible.

Very easy mate. About 2 minutes per side. Punch the 2 original blind rivets out. Replace them with the new ones provided with the kit.
I added a small bit of double sided tape down at the bottom. They are just barely noticeable here.

Thanks, it was all supplied and fitted by BMW. It was around £1900 all in. I absolutely love it. It drives reaaaaally good!

Picked up a mint Mineral Grey M4 at the weekend. Very please so far. Re the Eibach Pro kit Lowering springs. Defo want to do this, but does fitting this kit with 12mm spacers, make the ride any harsher? Cheers Louie |
