I know Eibach makes for the European model I30 FD, but which ones from the 2 kits ( for 2.0l ) from Eibach will work on my 2011 Touring GLS?

If you use their catalogue to search then there are two version/heights for your vehicle, touring = estate Online Catalogue - Eibach Springs

You’ll likely require adjustable rear trailing arms as well which you can find online or your suspension specialist should be able to make.

So I compared both kits and the difference is in the front springs.

The F11-46-015-02-VA have an OD of 175mm, the wire gauge is 14mm and the number of coils are 4.5. Also in the document they identify these springs for the FD.

The F11-42-016-06-VA have an OD of 168mm, the wire gauge is 13mm and the number of coils are 4.75. Also in the document they identify these front springs for the FDH.

What is the difference between an FD and a FDH?

[CraigB]

Not sure what FDH stands for possibly “heavy” if it’s the lower drop units

There are two versions for yours, the first-

E10-42-016-04-22  has up to 40mm front drop and 20 to 25mm rear drop and would probably be quite a hard ride due to the lower ride height.

The second version

E10-42-016-08-22  has 30mm front drop and 20 to 25mm rear drop.

I would suggest speaking to a suspension specialist who should be able to contact your local distributor to ask any further questions before ordering.
