Finally got around to installing Eibachs on my F83

This was a true 4x4 before the install. Now it’s time to wait a couple of weeks for it to settle.

Looking good
How's the ride quality compared to stock?

Honestly couldn’t feel a big difference in ride quality. Slightly stiffer but feels good.

Looks great!

These are great springs for the f83, I have them with the 19" 437 wheels and 12 mm spacers and really like the look. The ride is noticeably harsher. I seems that the driver side sits a bit higher tand the passenger side front, can you confirm?

Thanks for sharing the pictures and initial feedback about the ride differences. Does "stiffer" mean that compression cycle does not absorb road imperfections and the result feels as if the chassis bounces over the bumps?
