where did you get the front lip? how is the fitment? drop with either HnR or ACS spring, it would not rub as long as you have the right size of the tires and offset.

I did springs first (Eibach) and love the ride quality and drop on them. But the car still rolled in corners and steering felt disconnected. Put on a M5 Competition Pack front sway bar and a M550d rear sway bar (same as 650i). That mod totally transformed the handling and the car now corners flat and steering feel in spirited driving is much better. I know actually get some feedback and can feel the front tires loading up through the steering wheel. BTW. Why was that 2010 528i the worst decision ever? |

I did mine at the same time so I can't really say how big the difference would be. But there is a reason they choose to use stiffer sway bars both front and rear.
I really love how planted my car feels after the upgrade, but if I could feel a noticeable difference without doing the rear bar I don't really know. But IMO it seems logical to do the upgrade both front and rear in order to keep the handling more predictable on the limit (oversteer/understeer characteristics when driving on the edge). |
