So I've only had them on a day and they are way better that the p-zero's I had on before (also they were getting pretty low on tread). I can finally use first gear effective and not slip 2nd,3rd,4th in the rain. I can't wait for the weather to get better so I can test it out them out in the sun but its snowing right now

Installed competition front springs and left the rears standard OEM. I didn't want to spend $2k for HAS (w/ installation), so instead sourced used CP fronts on this forum and gave it a shot. I haven't seen anyone else try this, and I doubt there will be issues even with 20% stiffer rate.

I am REALLY happy with the stance — no more higher front end (and will never have issues with rubbing).

What do y'all think?! 🤘👍👌

That's a good and cost effective way of going about it,just the 1cm lower cp springs so not a difficult job and why change the a/roll bar for a thicker one, now it looks good.

That looks really good. Back in the day on my first m5 i was thinking of doing hr in front and stock rear but people said ride would be bad.

Not only do you have the perfect stance but the ride is still smooth and not as rough as lowering springs would be

Thanks! Yeah, no issue with ride quality thus far. I had H&R on my F10 550i on 21s, and while the look was BOSS, the rubbing was annoying and the ride was, indeed, rough.
