difference between eibach and h@r springs

[paulfromtulsa]

i read on this forum that h@r springs lower our cars more than eibach ones. but when i get on the manufacture's websites they show that eibach lower more than h@r's. does anybody know which is true?

i have the eibach's with 20" wheels and spacers that push my wheels out so they are perfectly flush with the body. didn't even have to roll or trim anything since it's not TOO low and rubs. could only recommend the eibachs.. H&R i am unsure of... tBal u got the H&R's right? any input?

h&rs will give you a more aggressive drop, however it is more stiffer than the eibachs. If you want a good drop, and pretty close to stock ride quality than eibach is the way to go. If you want a stiffer ride and aggressive drop, h&rs... If you want it all, then get some KW coilovers ;)

will the springs for a e63 fit a e64?

Im th 90% sure there is a difference between the coupe and vert springs!

[schulrog]

the type of eibachs sold for coupe/vert are the same so i would assume the stock springs are the same too. woulnd't make sense to use 2 different sets of springs

[acmw]

the diffrence for the coupe/vert is that the vert rear is stiffer.

thus their are 2 different springs..

Heres the model numbers for the h&r springs for the 6 series.
50466 coupe 645/650
29205 vert 645/650

Im positive eibachs the same, different springs for e63/e64

thanks for all the info. so am i safe by assuming the springs for a 645 and 650 are the same? i think i am going with a h@r spring i found them at modbargains for $223. are they a good company or where else would you suggest to buy them?

[tbal69]

i bought my springs off them, good ppl to deal with ;)
