I am in the market to do lowering springs on my new X5 and I was wondering what options are the best for the greatest drop. Based on the pictures I see alone, lower springs dont really appear to make a big difference, was trying to keep budget in mind. Thank you!

You'll get more help posting in the F15 X5 forum vs. the general forum -

With that said, H&R will get you the lowest drop on this platform, but you likely won't be happy with the compromised ride quality that will result. H&R springs are not real popular on the F15 for this reason, that includes the VTF adjustable version as well. Eibach and Dinan springs will provide a minimal drop without compromising ride quality.

If you really want it low, the proper route is coilovers, either KW or BC for the F15, but you'll pay considerably more than you would for springs.
