Eibach Pro springs E92 M3

Hey guys

Just needed some input. I have a E92 M3 Comp. I purchased the Eibach Pro Sport springs. Was only going to use the front as the back is already lowered by factory. The mechanic scared me into saying that I'll will feel every bump and that my suspension and ball joint will break. Any input would be appreciated.

Change mechanics

The eibach springs are a very mild drop and pretty compatible with oem shocks.

The zcp suspension lowers the front and the rear, however, eibach will still lower it a tad more

Lowering springs are definitely not good for your suspension, but sticking to a oem-ish spring like the eibachs is your best bet

I've been trying to see a pic of ZCP vs Eibach Pro.

What is the drop difference? I've searched the forums but no dice

Just wanted to determine if it's worth paying to install the a Eibach vs keeping the ZCP springs
