I mounted today the Eibach pro-kit springs in my E61 535d-M. I measured the stock height and got 680mm and with eibach has now 660mm. They claim 30mm of lowering, so i hope that it will settle down to get the other 10mm. The ride quality is a bit stiff than stock but i can live with it. Who claims that eibach give the same ride quality is lying. Once i have the hydraulic suspension at the rear, i only needed the front springs, because the rear can be lowered by the GT1 (BMW PC). Does anyone already lowered the rear with this system? I thinking not to lower the rear because i actually like the way it looks, the front a bit lower than the rear.

I have a 2009 535xi, interested in a mild drop, like the one you get on Eibach Pro-Kit springs, but after looking at Eibach website My link
I did not find any spring option for E61 or E60 xi models.
Does any one know if Eibach discontinued springs for AWD cars or do other E61 XI owners install springs for E60?

I did not have a good experience with H&R springs and Bilstein shocks combo on one of my previous cars (99 Honda Accord), so would like to explore Eibach line.

Thanks!
