both of you guys offer excellent insight. eibach offers excellent springs from past experience and i'm sorry that you had such a negative experience with the h&r springs, rice_rocket88 .
it seems that i've run into a wall because the springs that eibach makes are for the sdrive28i and the springs that h&r makes are for the xdrive28i but both manufacturers on various websites state that the springs will not fit the m35i and i can't for the life of me understand why because i have the static suspension setup not the variable dampening setup. the only reason i can think of is perhaps the shocks are different on the m35i but even then with a 20-30mm drop, it doesn't seem as though having specialised shocks would make the vehicle incompatible with the springs used for the xdrive28i model. i'm not sure, but if anyone can point me in the right direction, that would be way helpful.
if not and there really are no easy solutions to lowering the ride on springs and coilovers are my only option, then i'd rather just purchase the 20" wheels and go with those whilst not lowering the car than installing coilovers because coilovers are a pain and i'm not planning any track use at all, just spirited street driving.
