Rear springs snapped - replacement options

[mark seeker]

It seems both my rear springs have snapped (MOT failure), I’m looking to replace them with something other than the BMW items (as these seem to snap quite frequently). I’ve been looking at the Eibach single spring pro kit, are these a close to OEM replacement or is there a direct OEM replacement option (I’m struggling to find one).

Thanks in advance

Suplex seem to be the recommended like for like replacement.

Many thanks, I’ve had a look but struggling to find a reseller easily of them.

I might bite the bullet and source from BMW, I ideally need them delivered this week.

Hi Mark, where are you based? I have a set of rears laying around not doing a great deal.

Eibach Pro are shorter & softer so you'll need all 4.

Do you have details of the spring rates?
