I bought the only coilover suspension I know thats available for my 545i which is the H&R. Spent $1313 hooked up price. Installed it myself

I like it low and slammed, but after noticing the wheels would rub my front fenders while turning and hitting dips, I got concerned. I was able to fix the rear rubbing by hammering the fender rolls in more. Now i have it on the most highest setting I can on the fronts and its still just right on top of the tire. but it helped alot. my first setting was one finger tucked in the front.

Did you buy the wheels after looking at my car?

Wow, that looks great, more pics. How is the ride and handling? Any problems with active steering?
Went with the ghetto way of rolling fenders, but as long as they don't rub, then I guess it doesn't matter. Is there actually a difference between hammering the fenders and using the rolling device that shops have?
