I have an 04 545i w/sports suspension and wanted 2 know what my options were for a 1.5 inch drop starting with just springs. I also have 19" staggered after market wheels. Thanks.

welcome and enjoy the forums. for springs for a 1.5" drop, closest you would get is with H&R race springs that would drop your 545 sport about 1.3". otherwise another option would be coilovers where you can adjust to your liking. let me know if I can help with anything man

Thanks for the info. I originally was going 2 go with the h&r springs but the guy taking my order at tire rack told me because I already have the sports suspension it wouldn't make a difference.

Thats not true, it should lower you about a half inch if you have sports suspension if im not mistaken. Is that correct guys?

what would lover the 545 0.5" all around is the eibach pro-kit springs. H&R sports would lower the 545 sport about 0.6" front and 0.5" rear
