Ahhh that's good to know ... maybe I should look around Lincoln one of these days ...
I know for a fact in Omaha we don't have perfect road but we just have a much better BMW dealer

My Ride: 2009 Alpine White e92 M3
if you want the best quality ride with the ease of mind, go with the KW's, member Macfly has the hook-ups and his price cannot be beat. I got mine from him.
I used to have H&R sport on my 550 and I would say it would be the best bang for your buck!
FYI: I was bottoming out and rubbing with the H&R springs and I had 20's too. GL with your mods.

i have been talking to drlev and dranged. after the convo's between those two guys i am not longer considering the h&r springs. Im going to get my wheels and put them on with the stock suspension with the plan of adding coilovers over the winter. Thanks for the help guys.

the only thing is spending the 1200-1500. i have crab apple trees outside my place but not money trees. just dropped cash on the rims, will need tires. not much left to play with 
I'm exaggerating a bit, but point is, your ride height looked fine IMO. Take that 2k and go for the Mtech instead. Good luck.

good point i over looked. might as well get them and get them on the car and see how it looks. I think my stock suspension even sat down a bit when i put my current 20's on it.
Thanks, im extremely excited!! Mid may is the target date! Also got a call today from my craigslist add for my chrome wheels. Well i didnt get it because i was sleeping but my boyfriend took the call. Gave the guy a price quote of 500 for just the rims. If he buys them all that goes into the next mod.
