I was just looking into this last week. According to NM, they no longer have the rear lowering springs available for the R55 Clubman. ECS may want to check with their supplier.

Eibach makes a spring setup specific to the Clubman (search for Eibach 5706.140)

Was also told that the Bilstein B14 is not calibrated for the Clubman. Specifically the Clubman uses a stiffer rear spring rate than the hardtop. While they will fit on the Clubman and you can get a level stance, you may have some rubbing issues if you have passengers in the back seat.

People do use them, and it is a quality product at a good price, so I'm curious to hear how they work out for you.

KW has coilovers specific to the Clubman as well.

More info
I would like to read more about the Bilsteins. What site did you goto for your info.
Edit: I have read up on kw coilivers. They are popular but not the end all coilivers. Reason being they are twin tube. Bilsteins are mono. You reference the spring rate. Con you give numbers so I could research.

Exchanged messages directly with NM Engineering who have the B14 on sale.
