Looking for a modest drop for front

For those who know about dropping a car, do you see any issues using eibach front springs only while retaining the rear oem set up?

The link doesn’t work, but ACS offers only front springs if that’s what you’re looking to do, and their products are excellent.

I recommend the MSS kit instead, they use Eibach springs in their kits.

i recommend using 4 springs to lower the car and not leave the rear stock

I just had a set of the KW HAS installed on my G80. I did not want a crazy drop.

How low did you end up going? Could you go much lower with that setup?

not exactly sure how much it was actually lowered in terms of measurement. I just showed them from other installs where i wanted the car to sit. Front is probably all the way down or close to. The rear has some left to go. But I wanted the gap even all around and not a reverse rake.

Eibach makes a front-only set for the G80 M3. They're currently sitting in my guest room, waiting to be installed. I'll post some pics once they're on the car.

Any progress with this yet as I'm also looking at a set of Eibach's for my G82 and don't want it slammed, just slightly lower that stock?

I've checked with a local performance car specialist in the UK regarding the availability of Eibach springs for the xDrive G82 model and Eibach have confirmed they are not yet available:

"I have spoken to Eibach, the springs they offer at the moment do not support the Xdrive 4WD and that these are currently in development with themselves"
