Sorry i sent these messages from my phone and were really brief!
Let me clarify. I know you had said that you went for 255 instead of 265 because it needed 5mm spacers. From that I take it you don't have any spacers. But I've always thought that if you lower a car, it will require spacers to push the wheels out around the arches - with the larger tyres, I was wondering if that is still the case? |

I know your 295 works in the rear but I hope my Gran Coupe (640d), doesn't cause any issues - I've just ordered 255/35/20 and 295/30/20 Michelin PSS XL and no refund policy!! Hope it fits!! |

H&R sounds good but I guess it has a rougher ride quality where you can feel many of the road bumps? Is that why you went with the eibach? |

Makes sense - would love to see the wheel gap of the same car on both eibach and h&r - plus any review on handling would be a bonus..

I did it on my M4, tried H&R, Eibach, KW sleeves and ended with AC-Schnitzer springs, best of both worlds stance and ride for my own taste and model. You have to consider each application for your specific model since a V6 weights a lot less than a V8.

Would you ever consider 255 F /285 R stance? I'm having to go with 285 on rear due to UK width/wheel arch legalities. Appreciate your thoughts?
