F31 X-drive Lowering Springs

Hi all

So looking to lower my x-drive f31 and looking around H&R springs seem appear allot so are these the best options and if so where is a good place to buy them in the Uk or is there other options apart from H&R?

Cheers

H&R are an excellent company and I have their products on my cars, but I wouldn't use their springs. They are about 30% stiffer than stock and add too much harshness. Eibach is a huge spring manufacturer. Their springs are only about 10% stiffer so the ride is so much better.
