My Ride: 2006 530xi (Titanium Grey/ Black interior) Debaged, L.e.d. light upgrade throughout. ACS roof spoiler. H&R sport sprigs, Angel eye upgrade, euro sticker, ,matte black grills.
Does any one know if I cut (1) turn off the H&R sport springs, would it mess up the ride. I have an xi and like the drop of coilovers but non are available for the all wheel drive models. So i figured i could cut one coil off the front springs for that nice, aggressive drop.
any input?

but for some reason even with xi's when you drop the car the front sits kind of high in my opinion i would cut it just a tad. for that even look

do not cut them....ride will be bouncing everywhere...
As far as I know H&R and Eibach are progressive. Might want to give H&R a call and get their .02 cents worth
