I've fitted the Eibach springs (E10-45-007-01-22) to my 2018 V6 R-Dynamic, close enough to your car to give you some insight. Eibach only produce springs for the V6, one set fits all years. The spring height is -15mm front, -25mm rear. I prefer this setup as it removes the factory nose down pitch and produces a better stance. The ride is marginally stiffer than stock, but barely noticeable once out of town. The only downside is that to produce a shorter, but slightly stiffer spring, Eibach have increased the wire diameter, which adds 550g to each corner (2.2kg overall). The upside is of course that the Eibach springs are extremely good value for money. Handling is noticeably improved with flatter cornering and shocks cope well in either sport or dynamic mode. Relatively easy to fit, plenty of videos on YouTube to guide you through the process, but car lift will be needed to simplify the front strut removal. Once fitted, make sure you get steering geometry/wheel alignment adjusted, as the new springs will mess up factory settings. Before and after pics to give you an idea of difference from stock. The after pic was taken two days after fitting and I would add that after 4 months of running on the Eibachs, the rear has settled another 5 - 10mm.
