FS: Eibach Pro-Kit, and BMW M3/M4 Springs
I have various springs for sale from Eibach and F8x cars. I'd like $220 each set, or $120 per individual axle shipped (CONUS). If you're in the SF Bay Area and want to come over to have me install them for you I can do that with the springs for $350. I can also provide kydex spacers/shims for the rear springs to get the appropriate ride height to match the front with these sets for $10. Eibach Springs 1) F11-20-014-14-HA (rear) springs. These rear springs are meant for the F31. If you have ACS F31 springs and don't like how the rear spring sits lower than the front, these are the updated springs that correct that. I had these on my car for 11mo. Additionally, these springs have the same rate (95N/mm, 542.5lbs/in) as the F11-20-031-03-HA rear spring recommended for F30 xDrive, F30 330e, F34, and F36 cars. These springs are 1/4" taller. and could be a good height pairing with the above front Eibach spring if you want a bit more of an aggressive rake. Here's a link to Eibach's documentation on the springs including drawings and spring rates. You can see my thread on F8x springs here. Last edited by FaRKle!; 08-07-2019 at 01:35 PM.. |

The kit I have for the 428i xDrive will fit your vehicle, but there's a bit of difference in spring height. Both the RWD and AWD front springs have the same spring rate (29N/mm, 166lbs/in), but the AWD spring in this kit is 10mm (0.39in) longer when uncompressed. The rear spring is the same between the two kits.
On my vehicle, the recommended kit for my car gave me a forward rake (front lower than rear). I went up from the recommend spring for my 4cyl front to the 6cyl front spring and that gave me a bit more front ride height, and I still have a slight forward rake (less than before though). I would guess that the recommended Eibach kit for your car gives the car a slight forward rake too due to Eibach's documentation saying that kit is supposed to lower your front by 15-20mm and 5-10mm rear. Using the xDrive front spring would probably make the drop even front and rear (5-10mm both). Thanks! |

Ok Farkle... I may bite on your deal a couple of questions:
1. Install in your garage or mine? 2. Will your set fit my 2015 435i M sport with Adaptive Suspension? If you still have the springs and can do the install, PM me and we will work out the details. |

OK FREE BUMP for this!
Farkle / Drew had two sets of these springs. I bought the set that fits the 435i. In short, he said they were like new. They were. The price included the install! After just under 5 hours Saturday AM we were done. For $350 you can't get any shop to get you the part, do the install, and reset the ECU codes. Drew was a total stand-up guy, knew his stuff around the F3X and has the right tools to get it done. It was great to hang out with him and Andino(?) Saturday AM. If you are thinking I just want a sportier ride and slightly lower car... these springs and stock shocks works wonders. The ride is a lot less floaty. It's not firm to the point of jarring and the drop isn't scraping all over the place. |

Thanks for the kind words Percy!
One set left for 335/340i xDrive sedans and GTs! I suppose it could also work for 435/440i xDrives too if you want a slightly stiffer spring set without losing any ride height.

Bump, still have the 335/340xi kit!
Also have a set of M3 base and M3 Competition pack springs too. I recommend those for 4cyl xDrive and 6cyl RWD F30/32/36 cars (not F31/33/34).
