Does anyone have a pic? I am thinking about putting 172s on my 07 550i with sport package and wanted to see how they look. I understand the LCI 550i with the sport pkg sits slightly lower.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Ric, I think the OP is looking for pics of 172's on sport suspension, non M sport suspension....correct? Did your springs bring your e60 down to sport suspension height?

Thanks! To confirm, when you say 'standard suspension' you mean non-sport or standard sport suspension (non-M)?
As of what we have in the EU, sport- and M-suspensions are the same, excluding the M5, of course.
The E60 M suspension lowers the car some 25 mm, the Eibach Pro Kit some 30 mm.
(What ever that is in yards, pints and 3/15th's of a 6th or something
