Track time before aftermarket spring alignment?

Is it safe?

Just installed H&R springs on my 1 week old M5. (~500miles so far)

Signed up for Driving school, in order to learn how to handle the limits of the car.

Will it wear out the tires significantly? Any Damage to my suspension before break in?

Very nice! What driving school are you going to?

Suspension should be fine. The brake pads and tires will surely take a beating though.

Danny McKeever's Driving School.

Heard good stuff about them and they are one of the closest tracks to me.

1 Full day of learning might be the best mod possible. lol

Just make sure the 1200 mile service has been performed. Check the site here for tips re: track days. If it's your 1st ever DE event, you shouldn't wear out too much tyre and/or brake pads. Remember though that as you push the limits; (yours and the car's), you will wear especially the rear brake pads by keeping the ASC/TC on. Good luck and have fun.
