You guys forget that he's on a rather tight turn and the car is rolling to the left so the image is a bit distorted...but even so i find it a bit too low. Too low for our roads though. I can see the camber is affected on that car too.
So what is the shortest set of springs avaiable for the e60? H&R Race?

Bettermakeway is correct. The car isn't as bad as that, the suspension is fully compressed and the car is leaning to the left. In addition, there are 4 people in the car (all e60.net members! )

The bilstein kit is too low at its highest setting! I've had to install spring helpers at the front to raise it a little.

You must have had the shocks at the softest setting for the car to compress and lean that much. I have KW Variant 2 coilovers with the shock stiffness set at about 2/3rds and I'm pretty certain my car doesn't lean/compress down like that in a corner.

Then again, I'm inside the car so I can't visually confirm....
