My Ride: 530xi 07' fully loaded...stock :(
wondering if anyone has tried the H&r springs for XI models i hear bad things for xi's (ride comfort) ...from trinity A.S hows the ride comfort is it worse the stock ? reason im asking is i could bare less comfort for sleek look of being lower but i let my mom drive it for simple tasks bank shopping grocerry etc. shes a stay at home mother but id like it to be comfortable at least for her. thanks in advance

From what I've read, there's a possibility of some crashing and bouncing. I'm waiting for the Bilstein B8's to finally become available in the States to install my springs together with the B8's.

I've been running them for almost 2 years now with no problems. Its a little rougher then stock on crap roads but good roads are golden. Best $$$ I've spent on my ride so far

I just ordered my h r springs its the way to go if you like the default ride height from the springs. the coilovers are way too much for what i need.

I just ordered my springs and my alignment guy says i will need front camber kit because he will not be able to set the front within specs. Is this true?
