I went with Eibach Prokit with stock sports suspension. I made the swap with about 500 miles on the car. The drop is minimal. The ride is just right.

This is the current look with 20" wheels.

Member salaki has H&R sport with OEM sport struts.
The drop looks great and the ride wasn't bad.

I got H&R sport springs on stock sport shocks.

Car is smooth yet aggressive, & corners like a beast. I personally like the H&R sports more than the Eibachs since I get a little bit more of a drop which I think is more noticeably tasteful. I test drove a stock 530i the other day with run flat tires and hit a few bumps... I got to say my car rides WAYYY smoother... Must be those run flat tires

No spacers.
Not sure about the offset....think it might be one of those that is "secret" or not disclosed by the manufacturer (Asanti).
