They drop the car 1.2 all the way around on non sport suspension. They ride closer to stock sport suspension.

HR are a little stiffer and more aggressive feel.

There are a couple of other springs out there. Intrax makes a spring for the 530i.

I would love to see someone as the tester for something that is not eibach or H&R.

I have H&Rs, and I think they make a perfect match for the non-sport model (regular suspension).

My Ride: 07 BMW 525i Premium Package, Xenon Lighting Package, manual Transmission. Titanium Grey, 20% Tint around the back, 70% V-Kool on front. Planned mods: Style 71 wheels with Toyo Proxy 4 tires, Sachs suspension upgrade, upgraded stereo, and many more to come.

no support for Eibach?
alright I will be the first one. i have the Eibach springs and also the upgraded shocks by Sachs. it's a shocks and spring kit and i am not sure if the spring is identical to the pro kit or not
lower 1.5" in front and 1.2" in back. to me the ride is very good, but i have nothing to compare it against...
although i probably won't want anything more aggressive than this on my E60.

Eibach here...
I am using Eibach Sportline kit. 2" drop at the front and 1.2" at the back. Mine has sport suspension. With 20" wheels + 275/30 tire at the back, drive is smooth and no rubbing (4 people inside) under normal road condition.
I like it so far, perfect drop for me. Here's the picture (photo credit to: rodybmw)
