Lowering an X5 5.0: Eibach or H&R?

[Sylvan Lake V35]

So my truck was in transport mode, so the compressor wouldnt kick in. My independent shop figured it out by trial an error eliminating parts one at a time then finally recoding it. So far I have only drove it a few blocks and it rides ok but certainly not stock like. Tomrrow I will put on about 100miles and if its too rough Ill turn up the links a bit and see how it feels.

I hear my compressor kick on/off everytime i walk near the car. I didn't know the links were actually adjustable until I read this thread, so I might start by having them adjust the links closer to factory, but still like 1/2" lower or so.

I think mine is riding so low in the back that I'm getting flashed by everyone (thinking I have high beams on, but I don't)..
