disappointing update!
after ordering it through Tire Rack via overnight shipping, i rushed to ER for the install today.
after the install, i was so damn disappointed!!! the front was literally tucked under the fender, not the .5" drop i was expecting for my sports pkg. not even a finger!! but the rear looks like it didn't even drop a mm! the front was so low, i couldn't even drive it...especially when i got my hamann splitter installed the same time....i was that much lower on the front end!!
i call Eibach directly to inquire. apparently, eibach DOES NOT even make lowering springs specificially for my make/model!! but Tire Rack, where i ordered from, has part #2077.140 for my 535i.
needless to say, i had them put back my stock springs back on. i contacted Tire Rack and requested to money back and to reimburse me for the double labor i had to fork out today!
