yeah that was me driving up Turk toward the avenues. You were also in a silver e55 right? With tints and lowering springs? Do you park on 8th street on the corner? I see a lowered e55 there all the time and the stance is perfect.

I have Kleemann springs with #3 pads and Bilstein sports. The sport shocks are kinda rough sometimes. I would go with Bilstein B8 instead if I had known.
