Good luck with your decision. For springs, I've had nothing but great experience with Eibach. However, I think you should look more into coilover set ups. very convenient when you feel you want to dump it and when you want to raise it.

As for run flats....they suck anyways so you shouldn't replace it anyways haha.

Coil overs are nice, but there have been 2-3 6 series guys who installed the KW's and couldnt get their 22s to mount! The strut perch sits to far out. With 20s it would probably work...

Maybe, and just maybe. If you have not already purchased the rims, get the coilovers installed first. Than, if you are ordering brand new 3 piece wheels, let the manufacturer know that you have coilovers. Make all the proper measurements. Have them build the wheels to your specs, and it may just work with coilovers and 22's.

Does that make sense?

Has this been heard of with H&R's? suppose they still do touch, do you think spacers would fix that?
