It was clearly far too high at the front before Wow, that looks great and a very aggressive drop.
I thought you had fitted the 128s? Did you decide to stick with the 95s afterall? They are a great choice afterall!

It would be appreciated if you could provide some feedback on handling etc in this post -- thanks!

Another question -- how did you lower it more Are you able to adjust the H&R springs you have?

As you know, I have the 128s on mine and was expecting them to look much better than the 95s, simply because I prefer the wheel itself. But somehow with the look you have on your E61, I actually think the 95s work better; they somehow better suite the slick agressive look. But there's not much in it. A nice dilema to have

what's your preferance?
