Just ordered and now awaiting delivery of all the bits to do mine, but intriguing bit about the lower spring position as I would have also thought it would have gone up against that step in the rubber.

I have about 9K miles on my 3.0Si coupe (sport springs) with B4's. I went with advice from a friend's son who's a BMW master tech - he said I'd likely find B6's too harsh on our rough roads. The B4's are doing fine, and it's been a good choice for me. They didn't increase my ride height.
I put on B4's along with Eibach Pro lowered springs about 6 weeks ago. Probably only done 100 miles so far on them.
My impressions:
I haven't noticed any difference in ride quality, however, I feel that my old shocks were past their prime, so maybe I am used to a harsher ride?
One side of the car is around 5 mm lower than the other. We've had the car up on a ramp, taken measurements, checked everything out and cannot notice anything different between sides. It's not overly noticeable, but when you know, you know.......
