yeah, like gumbi said.
I hear the search button suspension is a killer setup on E39s.

Its all there. Instead of waiting for people to show you pics, there are tons of threads on EVERY suspension combo. Heck my car has bilsteins with STOCK sport springs and I have approx 1200 pics on here. Get it together.

will your springs work on my 540 sport? Do you know anything about the ddm 540 coilovers?
do you guys think style 32's would look good black on a sienna red 540 sport? Thinking about painting them black but cant find any pics of black 32's.

No they do not work on 540s,
As for DDM coils, i dont believe they are out for the 540 yet.

I sure as hell wasn't trying to steer you wrong by recommending you buying the st's. To the OP, here is pick of my 540 with susp tech 2" lowering springs.http://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc312/snosk8luke/lukescar038.jpghttp://i214.photobucket.com/albums/cc312/snosk8luke/lukescar039.jpg

Man, I don't know how you can roll your wagon that low. Mine isn't quite that low and it seems a bit "bouncy", and I'm running Bilsteins front and rear! While I do miss my "sport" suspension ride, it sure didn't look as cool!

Built for highway and cornering and that's it. City driving is no fun in downtown atlanta. Let's see pics of your manwagon teedub.
