Hey everyone, about a month ago I installed the eibach pro kit on stock e90 shocks with around 80k km. The ride is terrible it was manageable over bumps with the stock springs but with the eibachs it’s bad. Not to mention I can’t fully load the car anymore without it rubbing. I am using 20mm spacers on the rears with 19” wheels. No spacers up front yet

Does anyone know what I should do? I will be tracking the car from time to time so I will be dropping the wheel size down to 18” I’ve been thinking about getting the Koni yellows to pair with the springs because I heard coilovers will be even worse than lowered springs.

Also the prices of coilovers are so expensive I see the kw kit going for almost 3k CAD cheapest I found was the b14 PSS but then when I want to go on the street I’m afraid it’ll be unusable.

I know this topic has bean beaten to death but I’ve been reading posts for almost 3 hours I am leaning towards getting Koni yellows but don’t know if I should spend the extra money to get the b14 kit and potentially sacrifice the ride quality

I'm on B14's and they are ok. A bit stiffer on the street and likely not enough on the track. Also no dampening adjustability.

If I were to do it again, I would do Koni Yellows all day. You can change out the springs with some ground control/eibach linear ones down the road as well.

Rear seems to be too low for most of the kits out there, even for the B14, the rears are just above the tire even at full height. I have to get spring spacers to raise it more. See my other thread, someone posted some suggestions.

Funny, on my Pro Kit + Koni Yellow setup, it was the front that lowered more than I wanted (1.75" front, 0.75" rear vs. stock non-Sport springs).

Definitely happy with the combo, though. Pretty tried and true.

I thought eibach only made two springs the pro kit and the sport line one? Do they have others?

My car on Eibach ProKit with Koni Yellows.

Seems just about perfect drop to me.
