Does anyone sell lowering springs less than 1" front

Id like to lower my M5, i dont think the rear needs a drop, i dont like the ride on the tires look on the rear, its just the front that needs dropping slightly. The CP package is where i want to be, the CP pack drops the front by a further 0.4" (or 10mm in Euro measurements) So im looking for a half inch drop on the front (12.5mm) this would be perfect and give a great looking factory looking stance

But cant find this spring size anywhere !!

KW HAS & DINAN

I personally would go KW HAS and there is one for sale in the classified for a good deal

If you just want springs, Eibach Pro and Dinan are the most conservative drops. Eibach drops .7" in the rear and .9" front.

FYI: KWV3 street pricing is around $2,500. Dinan HAS is $1750 and they don't discount much. No brainer deal to get KWV3.

Yes, but the OEM struts aren't valved for them = not going to drive the same like the Comp M5. Might as well go Eibach and Dinan for the price.

Even the Comp guys don't think it's low enough. There's a couple of them looking for after market solutions.
