The ride is now quite firm but pliant at high speeds. At low speeds the ride is less forgiving (you can feel every bump on the road) and the car has hit the bump stops when hitting sharp bumps or potholes (its a very jarring jolt through the cabin - now i avoid potholes like the plague) - the ride height has been adjusted to the highest setting but this hasnt stopped the bottoming out.
As a next step, i'm looking to change to m-sport bump stops, to give the dampers more travel and hopefully this will reduce instances of bottoming out.
Overall i would say this setup is a lot less forgiving than the B12 prokit which i had on my previous F20 BMW.

Thanks for this. I've been considering this for my G20 but it seems like my hunt is on again. Wonder why cant they just make B8s for G20.
Eibach springs and B8s have been perfect for my F30.
