I personally favor the Steeda springs simply because of their customer service and testing. With that said, I have also had Eibach and H&R and they were fine. I basically have the HPDE suspension pack (non-magnetic) from Steeda except with the Minimum Drop Springs and the car rides, handles, and drives well.

I have used BMR on my s550 and was very happy with them, so I bought them for my DH. Installed and it made almost no difference in ride height. I called BMR and they said that if I have the Performance Suspension, it is already lower and that is why it made almost no difference.

I will be going with Eibach or Ford Performance for the S650. I had both Steeda and Eibach for my S550 but the Steeda springs didn't seat properly into the top spring perch and I was really disappointed by the quality in that respect. The Eibach springs fit absolutely perfectly. I would also go with Ford Performance as they have a set that works with Magneride

Are there specific springs you have to get for non hp cars?

They have the different spring types for each version (HP/ Non-HP/ Magnaride)

I have Steeda Progressives on mine and the ride quality is great but I feel as if it lowered just a bit too much up front. I had Ultralites on my S550 and it was a perfect drop.

Looks great! Are you running 20s in the front? Any rubbing?

20x10 with 275s.

Was getting a slight rub on both sides where a plastic fastener holds the inner lining. It would only happen at speed if I hit a long dip in the road. I removed the fastener and it got better but I still have to see if I can push that plastic in a bit.

Okay cool. I’m coming from a 2023 bmw m2 and I had to do the same thing on it. Trim back some of the plastic fender liner.
