I've seen a member here, David Boman of Sweden used Eibach Pro Kit E10-57-005-02-22 on his F54 All4. Its listed as a FWD, and most companies' FWD springs are listed not to fit All4's. The AC Scnitzer are no longer available. Does anyone know if the Eibach's will work; and when they say they don't fit the All4, what exactly doesn't fit?

On this site it says that E10-57-005-02-22 fits both FWD and All4. Were I bought it in Sweden it says that it is for a All4. // David

We ave them here: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-eibach-p...-57-005-02-22/

What it will do is just lower a little more on the All4 as the car is heavier.

 

That was my question as well, as Eibach's own website specifies FWD only, yet ECS states ALL F54 models. To further complicate matters, my S ALL4 was equipped with factory Dynamic Dampers.

What are the impacts of running lowering springs with Dynamic Dampers?
How harsh is the ride quality with these lowering springs?
Has anyone else attempted to install the Pro-Kit on their Clubman ALL4?

 

Some 10mm spacers would do wonders for your stock wheels with those lowering springs.

 

Those springs can work with and without DDC.
Just a littler stiffer.
See notes above on that because of weight it may ride a little lower. Maybe a couple mm.

 

H&R fit the All4. Solid 2 in drop. Ride is great. Added the NM RSB, suspension = done.

 

Im sure it looks great, but could you get some pictures to where we could actually see the new gap lol

 

2 inches seems like a lot... any worries about longevity of the suspension? Any modifications to the bump stops? What about changes to overall ride quality?

 

I am with you on that though. I think the tops of the tires would be up into the wheel well at that amount of drop, too.

rAte, any chance you have some before/after measurements?

Typically ride height measurements should be taken from the bottom edge of the fender lip to the wheel's hub centerline, so folks who run different tire heights can properly compare apples-to-apples, since tire height would effect the ground-to-fender lip.

 

I just took these close up pictures. Still very happy with the setup. Measured fender to ground, was a 2 inch drop front and rear. Tires are stock 17's. Stock ALL4 height was 27 1/4 front and rear. H&R springs height is 25 1/4 front and 25 1/8 rear. Looks great, handles great. Can't go wrong with either brand of springs.

Anybody use the AST springs? ECS has them on sale right now. I’ve used Eibach before on another car and really liked them, but 33% less expensive is a pretty big deal

 

AST is a top spring and coilover supplier in Holland. They do MINI race cars in holland and porsche. The CEO is a MINI owner if that helps. His 2 MINIs.

I could guys on here bought and liked them.

They have more selection for MINI then anyone I know of with variable drops dependent on model MINI.

 

Is it safe to assume that the AST will fit the All4, but just have a lower drop because of the weight?

 

Thanks for the info. I got impatient and ordered a set last night, so it's nice to know that they are good stuff.

 

Do you have an All4?

 

Yes, thats what we have seen. Based on weight.

 

I do not, just an S front-wheel drive

 

I had the same problem. When I look on eibach.de and some other European country eibach sites it states that E10-57-005-02-22 fit the all4 but on the USA site for Eibach is only says it fits the FWD. I emailed Eibach of North America and asked about the different answers for the same product. The US site said that it was because they haven’t tried the springs on an All4 so they couldn’t put it in the discription.

 

Yea, they did not test it for the USA i bet, but like all things we know what fits based off working with multiple vendors direct which is reflected in the site.
