Thinking about going this route but I saw in the other thread you swapped out to the KWV3. Anything in particular that you didn't like about the springs?

excellent. i aiming for an oem+ look without sacrificing the factory ride for the passengers.
if i can get an inch lower in the front and about 3/4" in the rear reduction i would be complacent if it did not turn the vehicle into a pogo stick.

The best setup for the ride quality with decent drop.

But rear is adjustable link on self leveling, so you can adjust it to your liking.

If my X5 is already lowered on H&R's, with their rear links, do I need to buy new Eibach rear links if I want to swap out my H&R springs for Eibach's? I find the H&R's very very bouncy, so for ~$250 I'd love to swap to Eibach and compare.

I'm lowering on ACS with self-leveling. Stance is good...I wish it was a tad lower, but to me this is how the X5 M Sport should've shipped from factory (especially with the wider stance - 15mm/20mm spacers).

Excellent. That is what I am trying to achieve. Spacers would be installed as well but I was thinking 10/15. Do you have any photos of your vehicle or a link?

PM'ed.
Spacer, can't go anything thicker than 5mm or slimmer than 20mm on the front. Unless you are sure that it will clear the hub shoulder. For the rear, 15mm is the minimum.

Does anybody have pics with Eibach drop on x50i non self leveling, so with 4 springs?
All the threads Ive found I believe have the rear links. To me the rear is more in need of a drop than the front and 0.6 rear is whats listed for eibach - afraid of spending all the money on install etc and not notice a real difference. Ruling out H&R as I want to maintain as close to stock ride as possible. |

I'd prefer Eibach since it's much cheaper. I like the look of that, subtle but noticeable. As I've posted before 0.6" drop in the rear seems like almost nothing for the price, but it looks good in that pic if ACS does mirror Eibach drop. |

And behaves similarly. I am 90% sure they are made by Eibach, but not sure if they are exact identical spring rate.
