The conclusion of characteristic of each spring I got from browsing the forum are:

1. ACS - some minor drop but gives a firmer rides

2. Eibach - 30mm drop and as comfortable as the stock spring

3. H&R - 1.4 inch in the front and 1.3 inch in the back in terms of drop, firmer then all of the above brand.

I have Eibach on my E60 and they done a pretty good job, I don't need to replace my shock absorber when I trade in my car with 100,000 km on the ODO. I will go for H&R this time though. Both are good IMO because of the value for money factor, ACS they say is Eibach tailor made for BMW. Too expensive if you ask me, for that price I might as well go for coilovers.
