First off, I love these Eibach Springs. They go very well with the M Adaptive Suspension. Only downside is they aren't quite low enough for me so I am considering either switching to H&R Super Sport Springs or just switching out the entire suspension to an Adaptive Coilover Setup.
I thought I'd check to see if there is any interest in these Springs. I picked them up exactly one year ago for $280 and have put about 12K miles on them so I figure $200 would be a good price. I'm located in Santa Maria (northern Santa Barbara County) and would be willing to drive a couple of hours to sell these because I really don't want to ship them even though I have the original box (heavy). If you have any questions/comments, don't hesitate to reach out. Thanks for looking!

Agreed! When I first tried to ship the springs by FedEx Ground or USPS, quotes were like $65 to $75 from West Coast to East Coast.
I gave UPS a try out of the blue... $35. I triple checked. You would have to sign-up for UPS.com for a free account. I think one of the questions was like how much do you plan on shipping a month, choose 10-15 ish. You can also use Paypal and invoice the buyer - nice because they can use a bankcard too. Upside here is you automatically get Paypal's shipping rate too. Both methods got me down to $35-ish shipping coast to coast. CALVIN - yep! He was us! |

Drop is 1.0" in front and .6" in rear according to the Eibach website. I would say it's closer to .75" in back according to my measurements. But I had the M Sport Pkg on my car as well as the Adaptive Suspension, so you may get slightly more drop depending on what your factory setup is.

what tire set up are you running with your 437m's? did you get any rubbing in the car even with passengers? I'm thinking about sending it on some eibach lowering springs with the adaptive m suspension, but im worried about rubbing. Anyways good luck with the sale!

Don’t see why not. I pulled the Eibachs and switched to H&R Supersports (about 3/4” lower) and still had no rubbing. The only time I rubbed was when I ran 235/40-19 Pilots in the front and that was only with big dips/drops. So I don’t see any problem with the Eibachs

Basic alignment and tire rotation is fine. With the Eibachs, they can still get it within factory specs and I never had any kind of issue with alignment or uneven wear as long as you maintain everything as you normally would.
