Got them mounted yesterday and I'm very pleased. Think she may need a drop to complete the look. I'll probably start looking into springs after the wallet recovers from this purchase...

Thanks. I'm thinking Eibach or H&R for springs. We'll see.

Definitely. Interested in your opinion on ride quality and amount of drop after install. What's your ride and options, 550i, 528i, sport/non sport, etc.?

Thanks for the info. So the ride quality now compares favorably with the ride quality before the installation of the H&Rs? No difference, or is it more firm but in your opinion acceptable?

Ride quality is stiffer but just as smooth as stock. I'd recommend it to anyone!
