Headlight low with H&R?
I have a question for those of you with H&R springs installed. Have you noticed your headlight beam to be lower than when stock? I know the headlights are supposed to auto leveling etc but i swear that they shine lower that they should. Is there anything specific I can do to re-level the lights?

The auto leveling should pick up on the adjustment but even then you are dropping the center point of the leveling.. I dont remember having that issue with my drop.

I think you will notice it most when driving in a very dark area. I recently went through the woods at night and noticed that I had to use my high beams more than usual. (Don't have the lighting package btw)

Maybe during installation the headlight adjustment arm connected to the control arm was broken. I had this on my 330ci. Not sure if it's the same on M5s. It was on the passenger side front control arm.
