C55 H&R springs only pic request
Does anyone have a picture of their C55 lowered on H&R springs only? I'm wondering how much of a drop it is compared to stock height. H&R claims 1.4 front and 1.3 rear, but I've read they often under estimate. I'm concerned that there is going to be too much drop in the rear and not enough in the front. I do not want to go with KW or PSS9 because I want to keep my OEM wheels (for the time being), don't want any major rubbing on suspension pieces and also I don't want to fork out $1500 for suspension that may or may not suite my needs.
Attached is how my C55 sits right now, I just want to close the fender gap, currently I can put one and a half fingers in the front and two in the rear. I would ultimately like no gap in the front and less than a finger in the rear.

Any luck with geting your lip on and shooting some pictures of your H&R drop?
