It seems they drop slightly less. The same springs (Exact same part number) for the AT cars shows -1.3" Front and -1.0" rear

Did you get the "Z4" ones?I've been happy with my Eibachs. I have an MT so it's -0.9" Front and -0.8" rear
Running 265/35/19 and 285/35/19. This is how it looks after the springs settled/getting an alignment. No rubbing, no clunking, steering feels normal.
The only thing I did was add some additional spring silencers to every other coil of the tightly wound portion of the rear springs. I'm not actually sure if those silencers were necessary though, I did them before installing the springs as a "just in case"

Nope, I got the USDM ones. Euro Z4 ones have slightly less drop in the front as they're -08" all around

HKS springs here.
I like them and they allow you a little more room for wheels and tires if that matters to you.

I must be lucky! Whiteline springs. 265/35&295/35 with the ZL1s and no issues at all. I thought I would, but after a month they’re all good!

Has anyone had steering issues like these guys in this thread when lowered? TBH this is my only hesitant to lowering this car

I’ve had plenty of fun and great to drive modified cars with every suspension upgrade possible to the point where I’ve pulled subframes and re-welded angles and mounts. I’ve Tried every type of bushing material testing you could imagine, steering column upgrades, steering rack upgrades and ratio changes etc…. 2 things I hate, I absolutely hate steering gremlins and solid bushings for road cars lol
That thread is the only thing keeping me away from touching the supra suspension

Z4 Eibachs here. Love them. Perfect drop IMO. Very little issues scraping anything. Ride quality is so close to stock it’s hard to tell a difference. They perform very well too. Attached pic is on a square 275/35/19 autocross tire set up. I use the rear wheels up front with a 10mm spacer. No rub even while under simultaneous max braking and turning.

RSR Superdown springs. They look great, are comfortable and the progressive spring rate in the back is great. We can still easily cut 1.3X 60’

If price isn't an issue, I would recommend MSS adjustable springs. They're dual rate on the rears.
