H&R| need help for lowering spring

my ride: X5 3.0sd Sports without self-leveling

I have been searched for a while to find out how much actual inch will be lowered even they claim 1.2" or 2" Front, 1.2" rear. most of ppl get more than the claim figure. But I was also told with Sport suspension, we could expect less amount inch compare to what they claim because stock sport suspension has already lower a little bit. for example, if they claim 1.2" drop, we might get only 0.9" dropped

Now I'm confused which scenario will be happened?

Any input will be much appriciated.

Is your friend open to public? If so are you be able to pm me the address and number?

Installed aero kit from BMW Dealer is totally a rip off and it cost like more than $5000 just for paint and labour.*
