Doesn't seem like there is a solution at this time- but do you guys think there will be? If Eibach designed the OEM springs, couldn't they just immediately offer a front-end solution with nearly identical spring rates to the stock setup? I know the sleeve kits are decent- but they are expensive for what I want and like I said, I don't want to touch the rear end. Long story short- I want OEM or equivalent springs for the front end only. Was anything like this offered on the e92?
A couple of companies did this for the E60 M5. Worked fine.

The trick is to only slightly bump the front spring rate. The car will understeer slightly more, but let's be honest, at reasonable speeds, all the oversteer you could possibly want is but a throttle input away
