Yes - I am on the M5 Rep Bandwagon! NO RUB at all!
20 x 8.5 Front - 255/35/20 Pirelli P-Zero
20 x 10 Rear - 285/30/20 Pirelli P-Zero
DDC functions incredibly well - I live in the suburbs of Philadelphia. Our roads are terrible!
Comfort - This is my highway/cruising mode. I am in this mode 80% of the time. Previously I rode in Sport all the time and comfort (Cadillac) mode only on long trips with passengers.
Normal - Feels like previous "sport" mode. Bumps are noticeable but not bone jarring by any means. Easy to deal with on a daily basis.
Sport - A little bumpy but reminds me of my previous M5. Spirited driving and off ramps.
Overall I am ecstatic with the drop! Even drop/no strange noises/no fuss/no nothing! This is how the car should have came from BMW with M-Sport. I feared ACS would be too conservative and bought into the cool-aid of every 5-post and shop I called.
I wish I did this sooner!

Awesome pics and white up Mr Business. Ordering my H&Rs tomorrow hopefully. I'm extremely an@l about my cars too, drive mostly in comfort mode but when I switch to Sport or Sport+ ITS ON!
I was concerned about getting the car lowered and the way it would look on the stock BMW Wheel Style 351m - 19" (M-sport wheels)... I plan on getting some 20's but not just yet.
It looks like there is a noticeable difference once these are installed, visually, which is mostly what Im after, with that occasional Sport+ handling thrown in.
Cant wait, Ill try to take a before and after on the cars wheel gap and post because I cant find many pics posted with a before and after side by side.
Peace!
