Default Cracked spring - can't find OEM available anywhere....UGH!!!

Cracked a spring in my 2010 e60 550i.



I can find plenty of oem spring replacements for a 545i

or a 550i until 07


Cant find anything for a 2010 550i w/ m-sport



BMW of south atlanta lists part as "No longer Available"


What gives? Where can I get a spring? Lowering the rear isn't an option, becuase with the cracked spring, the tires im running are rubbing the fender liner BAD. I just want to replace it with an OEM spring, and can't find one.

Try FCPEURO.com They have a spot on their site to request a part and the nice part is they man it on the weekend. Use realoem.com to get your BMW part number then request the part through FCPEURO.com

Can you replace the springs on the car with some made by Eibach or HK?
