Thanks! Simple and clean was my goal this time unlike my previous setup which was aggressive.

Orion V2s are the best AEs for bimmers.

I had 20s like you before. They were awesome since they fill the wheel well quite nicely but i noticed my car's performance is somewhat being sacrificed due to its weight and size. 20s are great for show purposes but can be a pig performance wise. 19s are just the perfect size for the 5 when done right with a decent drop and spacers. Although none of this matters because it all comes down to personal taste. Just my .02 cents.

Thanks! Ride is softer than stock sports springs (stock being on the firm side) but a little on the sensitive side meaning you can get a little bounce on uneven roads. Since the 5 is a heavy car, bounce a little here and there is tolerable. I'm looking to upgrade to NexGT coilovers sometime in the future when my stock shocks gets busted.
