ACS sports suspension kit???
Has anyone any experience of the AC Schnitzer spring kit for the M5, is it stiffer and does it lower the car a little?

Is it any good, a mate has a set never been used and still in box, good price too. What affect will it have on the ride height and feel?

Have them installed. Lowers approximately 30 mm. Can not remember how ride feels on original, installed AC springs 4 years ago but believe it does stiffen the ride and improves car feeling overall.
