ok i was able to find this set, do you guys recommend them?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/H-R-Sport-S...VQQcmdZViewItem

what looks better

20x10 front 20x10 back?

or

staggered? 20x9 front 20x10 back?

sorry about all the question I just want to make the right desition.

Thanks for all the replys
As VT said the springs are fine.. 20x10 will not fit in the front so thats not even possible.. so the staggered is the way to go.. as for the tires i say go with 245/35/20 in the front and go with a 275/30/20 in the rear.. i have a 285/30/20 but I rubed and needed my fenders rolled so 275 would be a safer choice..

Congrats on car! Since you have sport package you can only do the front springs! and those will gain you 1.25inches, the rears are N/A because you have self leveling system in the back.

Those ebay ones will NOT work. Those are the ones for non sport optioned E60's. the correct number is below! plus i can get you a better price than that and maybe free shipping. Im not a dealer but i can refer you to who I went threw

I agree with Hamann5 about the rear tire size. I just noticed that I put 285/30/20 in post #3 when I meant to type 275/35/20. My brain and hands were not in sync at that time.

This advice is correct if Underground has a touring. The second set of H&R Sport springs he found will be fine for his 530i sedan.

You ordered the right springs. You also have the Sport package based on your 123 wheels and shadowline trim around the windows.
