If any so cal wrenchers need some assistance feel free send me a pm. I'd be more then happy to shoot the breeze and drink your brews for some technical assistance. Something like this should take only 2 hours which would include a beer run and a taco run

wow, sweet drop. Just wait till they settle, its going to be super slammed.
A COMMON MISCONCEPTION, SIR!

H&R and other high-quality springs are "cold-rolled" which means they are super strong and will not "settle" like lesser quality springs on other cars.

It does settle and is not a common misconception.

BTW, looks great Nasty50. I miss having black wheels on my car

It is reasonable to drop an E60 with sport package that is on 20's?

I really like the look of your drop, and I feel like my back end is sitting a little high.

i think its well worth it the only reason i waited is because i had no time and money to do it.
i bought the springs 3 months ago and just had time to install recently.
also what size of tire are you running?
