Eibach Pro or H&R Sport for 550i?

So **********s is running a clearance on the Eibach Pro, I was minutes away from ordering the H&R Sports however, the price is too close.



The Eibachs are going to cost $340, vs $290 for the H&R Sport. I am looking for a ~1" drop which BOTH springs do, however I want a comfy ride as well. Any personal experience with either of these kits? Thank you!

H&R over Eibachs anytime, I had it on my 2013 550i, look good and it ride even better. especially if you have EDC then it will be perfect.

I had Eibachs spring on my w211 AMG and I didn't like it as much, it too hard has no re bounce.

H&R sport springs lower close to 1.5 inches front and rear. The non-sport H&R springs lower 1 inch.
What suspension do you have?

Thats for the 528 and 535, They have the choice of 2 different springs.

For the 550i, they only offer one set (sport) 1.4 front, 1.3 rear.
