I do have to question why you think the H&R are better suited to the zcp equipped m over the eibach...

I have also read countless reviews that the eibach handle significantly better than the H&R, but again those were mostly non-zcp equipped cars. I would love your input since it sounds like you have done some research on the topic...
Also, I am definitely checking back for the 275/35 results. I honestly can't wait to see if you can make it work, as I stated it looked almost impossible even at my zcp height. I think the set-up you have on right now looks absolutely fantastic though, I wouldn't change a thing  |
Majority of cars that ran or run H&R springs do not run the E36 bump-stops AND the modified upper guide supports. These two modifications are mandatory!
Yes the car will ride worse if you don't make these modification because you are practically sitting on the stops even at static height.
The H&R springs are better than the Eibach springs in terms of performance. The ride quality on my car and many others that run the exact same setup is pretty much like stock with a slight improvement in turn in and response.
The ZCP springs handle better than the Eibach springs. The H&R springs with E36 stops and guide support modification handle better than the standard ZCP car. If it wasn't the case, I wouldn't do it on my own car and recommend it to others and would jump to coilovers.
