Dutch 530i

Hi guys,
I've had eibach prokit springs and Koni yellow sport shocks fitted for about 4 months now and I was just wondering why so many even with mtech suspension look lower than mine at the back?
Is it because the shocks are so new?

Just wondering if anyone had the same feeling with the prokit fitted?

its because the prokit is a smaller drop than you really might think, also you have 19's so your tires arent as tall as 18's with the oem sport suspension

if you want lower h&r or adjustable coils is really the only way to go

I have H&R sports with bilstein sports and yes my rear definitely sits lower then yours, but maybe thats why the eibach pros are supposed to be closer to stock feel.

I had the Eibach Pro Kit on my 530 as well and the front was slammed, but the rear did not compare. I switched over to H&R and now have a more symetrical look. Just think of it this way... I bet you can carry sand bags in your trunk with the Eibach's vs the H&R.

I personally have the eibachs paired with bilstein shocks. I am though also on 20" wheels with thicker than usual sidewalls for tires. the front tires do tuck, but yes the rear is higher to have that raked look just like when it was stock since the 1.2" was a drop all around. it may have not been as noticeable when it was stock though. the rears I have about 1&1/2 finger gap in the left and 1/2-1 finger gap on the right with no one in the car.

Thanks for the advice guys. I did think about the H&R springs before I got the Eibachs, but I read so many peoples positive reports on them that I got them instead. I can live with it for a few mm as the ride quality is perfect. Plus with the M6 offsets I don't get any rubbing in the back even with a full boot and passengers. The front is another story;-)

looks good still... I'm thinking of getting springs too. Something to think about....

Can you post a pic of your car? I'd like to see how it looks with 20's.

Very small drop with Prokit. I bought the Sportline kit and love it. Prob as low as you want to go and still retain ride comfort.
