The Eibach should raise the car by .2" compared to the H&R currently in the car. The Eibach is a true rate progressive spring, I don't know if the H&R is. The folks at Eibach felt there would be some minor improvement in ride quality since their spring is progressive.

I realize I won't find a huge change and I feel it's worth $250 to take a shot at it. If it doesn't help, I'll just sell the springs and put the issue to bed. I am not looking forward to this job. However, it may yield some small improvement and that's what I am after.

The car is equipped with the wheels from an E55 (staggered 18" setup, B'stone 750 tires).

Thx.
