Options For Lowering 428 Xdrive

Any help? I am trying to lower car but it seems like they don't have dinan springs for 428x drives? Some ppl are saying H&R sports spring have terrible ride quality while some say it is alright. I am not thinking about coilovers at the moment..I don't want to spend too much and I am looking for a bit of drop from the xdrive height.

Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

Mine's not xDrive but I have H&R Sports on the M Adaptive struts and I think the ride quality is better than OEM.

I think the SuperSports would probably not be as good though.

Yes. By my experience, better. Absolutely no bottoming out. Better progressive damping. Better in Comfort. Better in Sport.

Better.
