The drop on Eibachs over MSport is 10mm I am led to believe.
This is for the front only, for the rear I don't think there is a difference.

The pro kit dropped mine by about 15 Mum at the rear and about 20 at the front, the sport kit goes lower. I have NO issues with speed bumps whatsoever.

Harvs43 is that on an E91?? What engine size??

The 3 litre diesel lumps lower more due to the weight I believe.

This was my old 330d manual M Sport on Eibach Pro springs with M Sport shocks. The ride was excellent with 29” non RFT’s and never bottomed out

If you look at mine from prev page, then this, looks like the sport kit has an extra 25mm drop over the pro

Sport drop is 1.5” to 2” approx

Sport has higher spring rates too

You could but if the orginal shocks have some miles on them I wouldn’t imagine that they would last that long with sportlines fitted, you would be better off getting some shocks that are better suited to handle that sort of drop.
