My Ride: 2004 Titanium Silver 530i
Not long after meeting some of you at Frys during the Central Cal meet I caught the mod bug. Within a week I ordered the Eibach Pro Kit/Koni FSD kit. Not long after I picked up VMRVB3 with General Tires.
The new suspension is great, body roll is greatly reduced and the ride is still smooth. A bit harsh over big expansion joints but other that that it rides like factory. I know many are concerned about using replica wheels. I have no problems with them, they balanced perfectly and do not vibrate at all.
Front: 19x8.5 ET20 245/35/19 center bore 72.6
Rear: 19x9.5 ET22 275/30/19 center bore 72.6
I have before pictures but can't seem to find the cable to transfer the pictures onto my computer.

Looking good! 
Watch out....the bite of the mod bug has long lasting symptoms.
