We've installed plenty of these to good effect. You will need to do an alignment afterwards, including rear camber which probably won't have enough adjustment for optimal setting. You could solve that with adjustable rear control arms.
I've got them on my 08 r56. I'm actually about to switch over to coilovers, but that's been a part of the plan the whole time. I essentially bought the springs to hold me over until I could afford a proper suspension setup.
The springs drop the car the perfect amount for any daily driver, though you will be getting a harsher ride. By harsh I mean pretty dang harsh...I knew this upon purchasing them though. As I said, I just wanted the drop and quickly and cheaply as possible, and I went with the Mach V's.
So, if all you really want to do is get rid of the tire gap, and you don't mind getting a harsher ride out of it all, the Mach V's are great. See my sig and gallery for photos.
Best of luck!
