4Matic Running Eibach Pro-Kit
I know that Eibach's site thats its for RWD, but I have seen some peoples running Super Sports on the 4Matic.
So figured its worth a shot, if anyone has any input it will be appreciated.

By Super Sports you mean H&R, and few people have done it.
I talked to Eibach Tech @ California, and they noted that when the cataloge says except awd, that means they actually tried them out on an awd model in California and in their opinion, it was not a good thing to do. I would keep that in mind if anyone considers the Eibach Sportline springs on a 4MATIC.
I'd suggest looking at the H&R Sport kit (with AWD part #) with about 1/2" extra drop vs prokit on RWD.
NOTE: IF ANYONE CAN TAKE A PIC OF THE FRONT SPRING WITH THE FRONT WHEEL OFF, ONE FOR RWD AND ANOTHER FOR 4MATIC, THAT WOULD BE EXTREMELY HELPFULL, AS TO HOW THEY ARE DIFFERENT.
The rear springs are the same, 4MATIC & RWD.

I would add vehicles with Advanced Agility Control pack to that too. It wasnt recommended for my car which is RWD and has this option but tried them in any case. Had to remove them within a few days because of knocking noises in both sport and comfort mode.
