Got my springs installed at a spot that a vendor here outsources too, just told me to contact them directly. Now car makes noises, cracking, clinking, and on uneven roads even rubs when wheels is turned...... Is this normal??

I have a new M5 with the Competition Package. Has anyone installed the H&R Springs on a competition package vehicle (with lower ride height from the factory)?

I wonder how much of a drop I will get with H&R Springs and how these compare to the stock competition M5.

Springs on the CP car are shorter than non CP. If you install H&R's you still get the same lowering end result on both cars since you would be taking out the oem spring completely.

The best measurements to take for ride heights are from the chassis, but a good reference is from the wheel centre to the arch lip(the point measured above. A CP car is 380mm front and 367mm rear or my car was

Hi there.

If you use the H&R spring, would you still be able to effectively use the EDC?

Thanks

Would warranty be voided if the springs are replaced?
