View Full Version : Do M5 springs lower the car more than 540i6 sport package spings?

I recently acquired a set of 18" ASA AR1s for my 540i6. When I first put them on, the car looked perfect in the back but a little high in the front. I'm guessing I'll probably need to get springs and shocks to make it look great. I was wondering if the springs that came on the M5 lower the car more in the front than the 540 springs. M5s look great on 18s, but my car not so much....

Likewise, if anyone has any suspension parts they are looking to get rid of, let me know!

Thanks in advance.

Really? I didn't realize the sport package springs made your car lower than the M5 springs.

Sports weigh less than the m5

they say....

the M5 springs were made for the heavier M5 so they raise the 540i a bit more than the M5

Ah- thanks for the clarification.
