All you will need is the H&R Sport springs , i have the exact setup your talking about! you've seen my rides pics!
Or Eibach Pro springs is another option although not as low as H&R Sport but will be easier on your stock shocks.

+1, and...

Get some Bilstein struts to match those H&R sport springs, your stock ones aren't going to last as long with the H&Rs. Plus at the cost of swapping out the springs, you might as well do the struts.

I would say get coilovers, KW and Bilstien are good

Also for wheels, can't go wrong with IForged Wheels.

Or for a good price you can't go wrong with these wheels, these members are in so cal as well

Hey guys, I'm new here. I have a 2004 530i in silver gray/gray dakota leather, excellent and enjoyable car to drive . I'm finally ready to start modding, looking into getting some rims but I'm a bit of a noob on this stuff. I came across the Beyern 20" Mesh wheels on modbargains.com and I'm a little confused about what size the tires should be. I tried searching in the forum and couldn't find an exact answer, so far all I know is that in the front the wheels should be 8.5 width with a offset of 15, and the rear wheels are 10 width with a offset of 20. If anyone could help me out here that would be greatly appreciated as I'm looking to purchase these wheels very soon, and any other tips/information would be great too. Thanks!

also where in so. cal are you located, I suggest coming out to a local meet and checking out all the modded 5 series.
