FS: Eibach Prokit springs Brand new
E90 only never used, decided not to keep car. Lowers 1.2 fr. 1.0 rear from stock. See suspension forum for pics and comparisons. I liked them becuase its lower than ZSP but not TOO low like the others.also reported to give the best comfort ride. $215+ shipping pm me |

I just got a set of these installed today and I have to say I am very impressed. The drop looks nice but the ride is incredible. It feels like the car handles much better but at the same time is actually smoother than OEM, at least non-ZSP OEM. Im not saying it is softer, but it is less bouncy and much tighter.

You can use the stock shocks for the springs, however your stock shocks' life will be less because you are using non factory springs and will blow out sooner than later (in about a couple of years). You can upgrade the shocks too, to something like Koni's, but it is not a requirement for spring install.

its generally believed that struts not matched to the spring rate will fail quicker...but with a moderate drop spring with comfort spring rates like the Eibach SPORTS (only), I would say the struts arent going to lose life dramatically. Youll prbably sell the car before you notice anything.

depends, if you want a lower car, then no. If you want a notable but not huge drop, then this is the kit for you. If you want a stiffer ride, get HR, if you want similar to stock ZSP, get Eibach
