I'm only going to say this one more time - M5 SLS and 535i springs are the SAME RATE. What I wanted to know is why the Euro M5 springs are recommended. Sheesh.


I suppose it's because these are the OEM springs SPECIFCALLY DESIGNED to be used with the M5 w/o self levelling. They are clearly different parts than the 535 springs. I don't need to know why they are different, I would much rather just put the proper part on the car. My guess is they are stiffer - remember you have a 155mph car in the M5...
