I drove the X this morning and was impressed! I was expecting the ride to be horrible (I always assume the worst with these things) but it felt just a tad bit firmer and better than my wife's E90 haha. I drove for about 10 minutes and local streets only. The shop is actually going to adjust the height a bit higher once we get the wheel studs and spacers on. Then I need to drive to let it break in, and then align and re-adjust to my liking. I think that 19" wheels with doofy tires (or proper tires) help a ton with the comfort. Now im questioning going onto 20's =/ . If I can make 20's work with some meatier tires, and not look like Im going off-roading, maybe..
I added one pic to the "what have you done" thread. Hopefully i can get that aero kit on ASAP  |
That looks sweet! Nice and low! I'll have to check out that kit. If My x5d could handle like my 335d, my 335d would be in trouble, because I already like my x5d a lot more. Just the balance of my 335d and the power it has make it better still.
I'll likely be going with 20s with 275/40 front and 315/35 rear on my x5d I think that'll be plenty meat to handle the torque when I delete and tune.
That suspension will probably settle in nicely though, and pair with the aero kit will look extra aggressive!
