Eibach E10-20-001-02-22 replaces the original springs on the BMW M3 Coupe (E46) / BMW M3 Convertible (E46) applications listed below. This four-spring Pro-Kit provides a fixed reduction in ride height while retaining the existing dampers, subject to their condition and the fitting document.
Lowering and axle limits
- Front lowering: approximately 20 mm
- Rear lowering: approximately 10 mm
- Maximum permitted front axle load: 990 kg
- Maximum permitted rear axle load: 1170 kg
These are the current Eibach catalogue lowering figures for the listed applications. Actual ride height varies with original suspension, equipment and vehicle tolerances. Any existing factory lowering reduces the additional drop. This is a fixed spring kit; ride height is not adjustable.
Vehicle applications
- BMW M3 Convertible (E46): 03/2001 to 08/2006; 3246 cc petrol; 252 kW / 343 PS; engine S54 B32 (326S4).
- BMW M3 Coupe (E46): 07/2000 to 05/2006; 3246 cc petrol; 252 kW / 343 PS; engine S54 B32 (326S4).
For rear-wheel-drive vehicles without self-levelling suspension. Check the permitted axle weights on the vehicle identification plate, not its unladen weight. Match the chassis, engine and spring part numbers before ordering.
Kit contents and identification

Installation details
- Have a suitably equipped workshop fit the springs and check wheel alignment and headlamp aim afterwards.
- Inspect the dampers, spring seats and mounting components, and replace worn parts before installation.
- Confirm the springs remain correctly seated at full suspension droop. Follow the certificate when selecting replacement dampers and assessing other modifications.
- Check wheel and tyre clearance and the conditions for any other modifications. Lower ground clearance needs to be considered on ramps and uneven surfaces.
