Installed H&R's with Koni's

So I already had Koni adjustable sports, and had cut stock E55 springs. I decided to go with H&Rs as I thought that the ride would be better suited, plus I was off 1/2 inch in height LR to RR and that bothered me.

I put these springs in today, and it took about 3 hours in total. I have done this a bunch of times before, so it was not a big deal.

Here is the set-up, and I think I have found a great package:

1. Koni Adjustable Sports
2. H&R's
3. #1 Spring Pad in Front
4. #3 Spring Pad in Rear

Looks good! I have the same setup but with #3 pads and it's great, it really is a huge improvement over stock.

Thanks guys. I'll be driving it 100 miles tomorrow, so hopefully I'll like the ride and the springs will be fully settled by tomorrow night.

Very nice Sweet set up.. It will definitely drop a tad more once the springs settle.

I see that your still carrying your dress shirts in the back seat
