The X5's 20" tires would rub the plastic fender during hard cornering while using soft settings, but if I cranked them to the hard settings, then it'd be fine. I'd like another inch or so on the X5M, but I'll see how it does handling and rubbing during hard switchbacks...but I can't complain for what I paid since it's sitting nicely finally.

I'm thinking of pulling the trigger on the H&R's with a 2" drop.. How are you finding yours?
Did you run into the same issues as others with a 1.2-1.5 drop with the rear making it a crappy bouncy ride? I'm running OEM 19's but I'm looking at 22" once my tires are spent. I live in FL so I don't see speed humps and the roads are pretty perfect.
The stance on your M car looks perfect imo
