How do you feel about having all 10mm vs 12mm front/10mm rear?

I should have gone with 12mm up front, but I'm still happy with the current 10mm on all 4s.

are u happy with the spacing on the fronts? hard to tell but looks not as flush as the rears...

12mm up front would have been perfect

Great to hear. Did you do the install, or did a shop? Either way, what time did it take, or did you get charged for, to install springs and spacers? How many hours??

My car's MG as well. Stoked to do this...

A shop near me did the install for $400. Check out there instagram page. They did a sick little edit on my car. Search "eurofed" and look for the m2

in this shot, 10mm doesnt look too bad at all.

BAN_M2C · 01-22-2017, 06:50 PM

This is great! I am not waiting more.. will pull the trigger on 10mm rear and 12mm fronts..

Most likely the burger kit which has the extended lugs included.

Yes. That is what I went with. I hit you up earlier in the week on instagram. Lol

BruceM · 01-22-2017, 10:14 PM

By the way, how's the ride compared to stock, would you say??

Yea it really doesn't. A lil surprised to hear he prefers 12mm upfront. But it's good to know optimal set up now.

Are you going with 12 up front?

Most likely if I do. I'm gonna see how I like it stock first and then lower it if I need. The stock ground clearance is 4.8 inches. I guess lowering it with the eibach springs drops about 1 inch so that puts it down to 3.8 inches. I don't think I would want to go any lower than that as it's more liable to scrape speed bumps and driveways.

I have the burger spacers on their way to me now (10 and 12) Im going to fit them and then decide on the lowering. The front DEFINITELY needs to be lower however i fear with a 1" drop that the rear will sit too low for my liking. But i dont have much of a choice when it comes to a conservative drop since both the eibachs and HR lower 1" (excluding coilovers).

On another note, anyone order the eibachs from the Euro ebay seller yet? Seller says they are genuine eibachs in a eibach box..nothing rebranded as i think i read elsewhere...

It looks like it only drops the rear for .8 inchwhile the front is 1 inch?

Their spacers look legit especially for BMW.

Turner motersports looks legit too. They seem to have been around the longest and claim to be the best.

Just received my burger spacers yesterday. 10mm and 12mm. Im going to try and find some time and install them before my springs (have not purchased them yet). Im curious to see how they look without the drop....however a drop is definitely in the cards. Ill post some pics in case anyone is curious for what ever reason to see what this set up looks like on oem springs.

Yea that would be great. Wouldn't mind seeing OEM springs on spacers since no one here has done that or posted pics on it yet.

Dabozo · 01-29-2017, 01:22 PM

Few before and after pics for anyone who is curious - burger spacers 10mm (rear) and 12mm (front) on stock suspension. Just need my eibach springs now....

Picture #4 and on are the after shots. Sorry about crappy lighting/pics- will retake better ones with car outside of garage.

Gimmethecash · 01-29-2017, 11:44 PM

Looks like a fair amount of poke at stock height, but could be the angle. I just pulled the trigger on 10mm all around. Mine is a bit lower in the front than the rear (MP coils) and I think it'll look good & not rub. I can always swap out the fronts if I don't like it.

ya probably my crappy pictures. But if there is a bit of poke, im assuming some negative camber from the drop will take care of that...
