I have an e90.. stock 19" wheels and tires and EDC. Was planning on getting the Eibach springs with 15mm spacers in the rear and 12mm in the front...I should expect no rubbing issues right?!?!
I was told that afterward the alignment piece of it is crucial as well! Thanks guys!

And there's no rubbing anywhere in my setup, and I'm running 275 tires all around as well. |

Get this - I had Eibach installed a couple weeks ago by a suspension & wheel specaility shop & told them to put on the 12mm spacers in back & 15mm in front. I pick up the car and notice they are put the 15mm in the rear. I asked them about it & the owner trys to tell me "it is illegal" to put a lager spacer on front than rear, & refuse to do it.
![]() There's no rubbing with 12 in front & 15 in back either. ![]() You can't reason with some locals. They are hardheaded. ![]() |

![]() I do like the Eibach set up & depending how it looks with the spacers, may decide to go with 18mm in front & keep the 15mm in back. Like the aggressive look. |

No. BMW itself is offering, essentially, the same thing with its Euro-only "Edition" M3 - the car sits on stiffened, lowered springs. The H&R setup does the same, exact thing. Why would there be an issue? The EDC continues to work just fine.

i guess everyone with the Eibachs and ECD are still happy? no issues with shock wear?
I was reading about Eibachs and kept running into the phrase "Eibach for EDC." I wasnt sure if Eibach made these springs to work specifically with EDC or not, hopefully helping with the premature shock wear issue us EDC guys have to worry about. Any input on this? |

Spacers with stock 19s
Purely for looks. Most seem the wheels look better with the tires flush with the fender lip.

Hi Technic
Did you install E36 bump stops with the Eibachs or was it the stock one?
