Lowering non EDC F80

Todd · 11-19-2019, 02:50 AM

I've searched but couldn't find any feedback on anyone that has lowered their non EDC F8x car on Eibach's or H&R's. Car is mostly street driven, so looking for ride quality opinions.

Since you're on passive shocks, do yourself a favor and get KW V3 (I'm sure there's a Black Friday sale coming up). Given the options you have vs. EDC suspension (and those who want to keep it), you'd be doing yourself a disservice if you didn't.

But, if you are intent on lowering springs, get M Perfomance HAS. Don't waste your time with lesser options. I had Macht Schnell springs before MP HAS, and it isn't even close. I didn't want to pony up the extra money at first, but you absolutely get what you pay for, and I would have saved a lot of money in the long run had I just spent more upfront and done MP HAS in the first place.

Source: My suspension iterations as follows:
M3 Base w/ EDC
Stock: 5000 miles
MS Springs: 2500 miles
Bilstein B16 Damptronic: 1500 miles
MP HAS: 300 miles
