BMWWheels.com is located in Arizona and the soonest they'll ship is probably the 3rd of Jan. It'll probably be there around the 10ish.

After driving the car with the H&R coilovers for 3 days, I have decided that this is not what I want. The ride is too harsh and annoying. It does not feel like the ultimate driving machine that it was before the drop. I guess the coilover is meant for a 525i/530i and not for a 545i. Now I have to order the same 12mm wheel spacers (sold to VT) or maybe even go for a pair of 15mm
