Default Which H&R springs?? E60 xdrive

Hello all, I have done a lot of searching on this site and research to find that there is currently two options for lowering my 2010 528i xdrive. H&R springs and KW coil overs, I'm going to start by trying the H&R springs, I just don't know what part number or which xi I need to order it for since no site "specifically" says it will for my exact car. Is the 2010 525xi the one to order?

Please help, thank you.

I already have them installed but thank you, I love them. I have no clue how anyone thinks they are ridged or rough, stock struts with the H&R Sports and I can barley tell a difference than stock.

reserve your opinion until about 6 months when the springs settle.

I'm assuming you're speaking from experience, I'll have to wait and see I guess.

This is my first lowered car, coming from a lifted truck which was a rather rough ride. So my comparison from what I'm used to is a bit of a drastic difference.

Good luck with butt squeeze exercise whenever you see those pot holes.
But I'm considering trade mine in for the X5 in a month or 2. Will return mine back to stock. Xi's KW V3? Anyone? let me know.
