I think you'll rub when you compress your springs enough. Like through hard corners and freeway dips.

Looks really good but only you will be able to determine if you should keep the 20mm spacers. I sure wouldn't take them off if I didn't have to because of rubbing. Let us know how it rides after you put it through a few runs.

So far, no rubbing that I am aware of. Keep in mind that I lowered with the nonsport package, so I am probably not too far from sport package height.

i have 20mm spacers.... it rubs when i go high speed and theres some highway dips ![Unsure](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/unsure.gif)
im actually more concerned whether 20mm is too aggresive for the car hence premature wear of things... any experts on this?

No, seriously I would be careful. I agree with what EBMCS03 said.
