I've already changed the OEM 19" run-flats to 18" snows (non-RF's) and that hasn't helped. No adaptive drive. The X5 had a real soft ride with non RF Dunlops.

Anything I can do with the suspension set-up on the X6? I'm willing to spend some bucks. btw, I appreciate a sports car type ride as I have a 996 turbo and a '01 M5. Both those ride better than my X6. I mistakenly assumed that the X6 & X5 sharedthe same platform, so the ride would be similar? No, I didn't test drive it - bought it via ebay (brand new) Thanks
If the ride is that bad, then I suspect the spacers are still in on the car and probably have been since delivery. They are either yellow or blue and are there to protect the car during shipment. See the thread below of this happening to a lot of 650s...
