Can I run my Eibach Pro kit springs with the BMW performance suspension? I was on unitedBMWonline.com that the springs are required but at a additional charge. I want it to be lower then the BMW performance springs...

I don't think you should have any problems running that combo.

anyone know the spring rate on the pro kit?

Anyone running the Eibach spring/BMW performance shock combination? Any reasons why not to run this combo?

PM dicker on the forums. I think he's using that exact setup.

I have same setup. Not bad control with the perf dampeners. Ride is still pretty supple, get's a little bit out of sorts on certain high frequency bumps (few concrete roads which are kind of see saw like). otherwise very nice, with a good drop for the look and still pretty good ride. I did trim my bump stops a bit when i had to reinstall them.

Thanks guys for the input, I went with the KW V1 because I got a really good price from Redline Motorworks, the reviews are good and I'm able to set it to a ride height I'd like. Now I can't wait to install them!

I'm running the BMW perf suspension with eibachs, car is great on the street, a little soft on the track, but still capable of hauling ass.
