Today I added H&R sport springs. I was pleasentlly surprised by the ride which was not depleted. It could even ride a little better as a result of the more progessive spring rates that the H&R's have.
Handling is much better with the car feeling even more nuetral then it already is with the with the hydraulic roll bars and active steering. Steering is more precise and slightly faster. Drift (oversteer) is predictable when pushed hard.
Best of all there is no longer a space between the tire and lip of wheel arch thus eliminating any gap where an unsightlly wheel well can be seen.
I will take pictures with my my setup tommorrow

My Ride: 530iA Silver Grey , black interior. Premium Package, Navigation System, Head-up Display, Radio Satellite, Adaptive Xenon Headlights. AC Schnitzer Front Lip, H&R springs, Rear red reflector, All season Floor mat,
I used H&R springs too. But i don't have a sport package for my car. The ride is abit bumpy when you reach about 80mph. I kinda like it but definately a 'NO' for the passengers.
