I'm putting a set of Eibach springs in my M6 after having H&R for about one year. I'll update with my impressions after installation. I just can't live with the H&R any longer.
I must say my first set of springs were Eibachs and then I had to go lower and put H&R's on but the ride is toooo bumpy and not smooth with these Fu****g H&R's
I think by default BMW cars are 'higher' in the front than the rear, I choose Eibach springs for my M6 because I wanted the "raked" look(the back is a bit higher than the front) but didn't want the vehicle slammed to a point where it's a pain in the a** for daily driving.
Eibach PRO-KIT Lowering Specs: Front = 1.0 in / Rear = 0.6 in
I had my Eibach Pro springs installed today. The ride height is slightly higher when compared to the H&R, but I have to say the car looks much more uniform and not 'slammed'. The ride... well what else can I say, it is hugely improved. I'm going to run the car in the hills this weekend to determine any handling compromises, but since my M6 has become my daily driver, I will forfeit any possible handling issues.
I am hugely happier with my Eibach compared to my H&Rs. Anyone want a set of H&R springs, I'll give them away for free, you just pay shipping.
I am extremely pleased with my Eibachs! Thanks to the recommendation of plastique999 , The car looks and handles almost perfect! There is no question these are "the springs" for this car!
I feel the car looks much more even and not slammed. The ride is hugely improved with no loss of performance. I don't know if it will affect my top speed with the slight increase of drag.
Hey guys, I have a set of unused (sill boxed, never opened) eibach springs for the M6 coupe.
If anyone is interested, they can collect, or send a courier to collect.
I don't wont any money, just send me a bottle of nice wine, and cheers.
You see, wanted a set for my M6, and I booked the car in with Hartge UK ( Birds) and at the same time my wife got a me a set, as a present, and I am now stuck with them.
It is a shame for them to go to waist, because I can not get a refund, so I would love if one of you could use them.
The only thing, you will have to arrange collection.
Just PM me for details.:cheers:
By the way, Hartge uses eibach springs.
That's nice of you to offer. I am good but hopefully one of our European Members can take you up on your generous offer! cherrsagai
