E550 Coupe
debating on springs!
so its a toss up between the eibach pro kit springs and h&r sport springs.

h&r drops 1"

eibach drops 1.2"

so im leaning toward the h&r cause i dont want my car to look too low/slammed.

but from reading around online, eibachs seems to give a better street ride for everyday use. and i also read a lot of reviews saying people who got h&r springs the car road harshly after.

any input? info? advice? thanks!

I have an eibach spring, will not recommend them , because it seems car did not drop in 3cm as promised ,but only in about 1-1.5 but became more comfy.

I have the H&R ones. When I had the stock wheels and springs on, I thought the ride was still very nice. The back seemed lower than the front, but I think most C207 people are finding that with any drop. The front seems to have settled more since then though. I now run with 20" wheels on the springs, and it's not too bad actually. Not stock of course, but not bad. People even commented they expected a harsher ride.

Thanks! tw8715, I really think, especially if you are going to stay on OEM/Stock wheels and tires, your ride will still be very comfortable. Mine is still decent on 20". It's all subjective of course, but I think you will be happy.
