Oh okay. The wording was just weird. Would a 2 inch increase in diameter even fit without rubbing? OEM wheel+tire diameter for the 19s are 26 inches front and 26.6 inches rear. I'm very skeptical that we can run a 28 inch front + 28.6 inch rear diameter.

Maybe the verbiage meant to increase wheel diameter and not overall diameter?

Originally Eibach was looking to change the spring rates for the US version. After much confusion and misinformation that lasted a year and half, Eibach USA decided to keep the same spring rates for the USA version. There might be subtle differences in fit or what not. I'm not sure. But point is, they are available now in the USA.

If you have 18" stock wheels and you go +1 you put on 19"...if you go +2 you went up to 20"

No way you can go 2" overall diameter bigger. 4x4 ready M3/4!!

It was our understanding that Eibach USA deemed the springs needed to be a little different for what the US Market needed. (little lower ride height in the front and different spring rate....)

We didn't change anything from the Euro spec. US = Euro spec.

We originally wanted to change the design slightly but after some global discussion with Eibach Germany we decided to keep the specs consistent as with past Eibach Pro-Kits for the M3 models.

Interesting. The US Springs still look a little lower front.

Could also be the uneven ground. None the less, I think the drop is nice a subtle.

IIRC, you are running a 275-295/35 setup, correct?
