eibach pro-kit gives the least drop with 1.2" all around. next would be H&R sport with 1.4" front and 1.3" rear. but it depends if you have the sport model or not because sport is already lower than the standard by 0.7" i believe. in my opinion, go with the eibach pro-kit. i have it and love it. if anything you could roll your fenders. good luck.

Find out what is the offset of your wheels. That is more important than what springs you should be using.

I just got mine lowered today! H&R sport springs. My car is a NON-SPORT model! and my wheels are same as yours! 20"s x10 and x9. So far no rubbing, but the springs have not setteled yet so we will know in about a week! 
Ride is great, i noticed it corners different and seems to hug the corners better!

hey tarek, lookin' sweet!
just wondering -- what rubber are you running on, and in what sizes? i've heard that a few tire companies actually oversize their specs, and this could result in rubbing over bumps etc. despite the right offsets even with custom made wheels.
q_bmw, i'm actually in a similar situation and here's another thread with more info between Eibach Pros and HR Sports: http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=47632&hl=
