I like this idea as it addresses the lost suspension travel that a lot of cars (not just our cars) have when lowered. I know coil overs are trick but if you daily drive in the north and have to use your car in snow and salt and this isn't your first rodeo, you know how coil overs age in the real world. Track car or summer car yea, daily driver, no. Gonna save my bones or clams and go this route with Eibachs in my 11 e91.

I wanted to thank White Fury for his research and data about this suspension option. I also wanted to thank TCKline for the excellent customer service and fast shipping. Lastly I wanted to thank my best friend, mechanic, and fellow forum member southjersy128. without his generosity, and mechanical expertise my car would not be what it is today.
I recently decided to change my suspension setup for mainly comfort reasons. I had Bilsteins and eibach pro springs and while a big improvement over stock I still had an urge for more comfort. I have my rear subframe bushings and sway bar swapped with m3 parts and that was a huge improvement. My current setup is as follows... 1)TCKline modified adjustable KONI yellows front and rear 2)TCKline provided bump stops 3)M3 rear subframe bushings 4)M3 rear sway bar 5)front Meyle HD end lnks 6)Front UUC sway barbarian sway bar 7)Eibach Pro (335i) springs 8)M3 front strut tower brace Overall the ride is very good. Rough roads are like butter and the drop is now finally flush in the front. I might get front adjustable endlinks due to the drop and new front UUC sway bar. Overall the comfort, drop, and adjust-ability have made this a worthwhile upgrade for my time and money. Anyone in the South Jersey area that wants to sample the ride PM me. |

I have the UUC front sway and Meyle HD front endlinks. Are the Meyle HD endlinks ok with my setup or should I get the HP adjustable endlinks? Thanks. BTW I love the ride with this setup. Comfort on NJ roads is much improved over my bilstein eibach setup. I like the front adjustment at 1 full turn from soft and the rear 1 and 1/2 turn from soft. No bounce, and no rake. I am a happy guy.
