Just saw that H&R released a spring kit for the M5.
My first impression when I saw the new E60 M5 was that it was a tiny bit to high...
Now they've solved it!

I thought I'd share a pic (if it already hasn't been circulated).

Looks great. How is the ride quality compared to the standard car? Have you tried it with a full load - 5 people or 4 guys and 4 golf bags??

I might consider doing this, but not if it's a really rough ride with a full load.

I'm not sure but the H&R's appear to lower the car a little more than the Hartge springs which have already been out.

I don't think this will affect the EDC but the 'Sport' setting should feel stiffer.
