You will get a better deal on the eibachs. They are cheaper to buy, and you shouldn't have any problem. I love my eibach setup. BMR would be my second choice since I have a BMR strut tower brace and its awesome.

I understand your want to have the same brand of everything because I am OCD in the same way. I will say that there are a few advantages to our springs over theirs. Our springs will lower the car a little bit lower so the stance will be a bit more aggressive. Another thing with our BMR lowering springs is that they are warrantied for life against spring sag so if you ever have an issue with the springs you are covered. If you decide to go with the BMR springs let me know.

I've been tossing around the same issue ofr a few weeks, but I'm running
20 x 10 285/40/20
20 x 11 315/35/20
Would I have any issues with rubbing, and if so how much drop is ok before I would start to rub???

2010ss/rs btw.

Honestly you should be good no matter which one of our BMR lowering springs option you choose to run. I personally would probably stick with the 1" lowering springs but that is more about preference that anything else.

I bought BMR 1" springs this time for my 1LE. They aren't installed yet but they will one of these days. On my 12' 45th SS I had a set of SLP springs and liked them as well.

I bought my BMR springs from Apex when ordering a bunch of parts, look around and you might find a good deal on what you're looking for.

Eibach offers the same warranty. I have the Eibach springs and bars on mine and love them!

SeriouslySinning thanks that was some good info. I did pick a set up installed yesterday and got alignment today. All I can say is night and day! This is my 3rd set of eibach and very pleased with results!

I have BMR 1" drop springs all around, BRM front and rear sways, driveshaft safety loop and BMR swaybar. I have no complaints about any of it.

I did have to get my installer to add more grease to the front springs becasue they were a bit noisy in the beginning. Since then, no issues.

You can see the look in my signature. I get a lot of compliments on the stance.

Generally if you have any squeaks or creaks it is from lack of lubrication on the poly-urethane bushings and little extra grease will cure that.

The car and the stance look really good so I am not surprised one bit that you get complimented.
