Should I do Eibachs?

Just put 19's on my 335i Sport Pack sedan. Do you think I still need Eibach Pros?

Yes. And spacers in the rear wouldn't hurt either!

Spacers? Are you kidding me? I'm running a +30 et now. Maybe the pics are bad, but no room for spacers

I think that huge lip in the back is throwing me off...but there's always room to go more aggresive!

I'm afraid with my more agressive offset & +2 rear tires the H&R will cause rubbing issues. They drop further than the Eibach

It all depends on your taste and what look you want to achieve brother. I'm putting 19's on mine and dropping it on eibachs just for the fact that I want to go a little lower. I would tell you that if you absolutely don't want to go any lower just put some perches on the front and drop it down a bit. The back looks fine, but the front looks 4-wheelin! Those perches are really cheap and easy to install and might give you a nice clean look.

the difference in drop is in the front, not so much the rear, you should be fine.
