Damn man this thing is the tits!
Im in a 2010 so I need to update my angel eyes somehow... any recommendations on where to find some? Your truck definitely is inspiring me to get my stockers done black and to slam it now. You think the V3 kws would be better?

I've had spacers on for over a year now and no complaints. I would recommend H&R spacers, I've had no issues.

Also, an update on the beast, I finally couldn't take it anymore and went with kw v3 coils. Truck sits better and the ride is waayyy better than springs. Huge improvement! Anyone thinking about lowering theirs, go for KW it is definitely worth it

Its been awhile since I posted, figured I'd give you guys some update on the big girl. First, thanks again for all the comments, I appreciate it.

I have had no rubbing issues and so far the truck hasn't given me any major issues. As long as your cautious you shouldn't have any problems with this setup. It just sounds like hell when I do hit a patch of shitty road. I don't know how many times I thought I was done for, but the truck soldiers on! Lol

Compared to stock the ride is a lot firmer. You know when the bumps are there but for the ride height I'm at it is the best option. The truck handles like a sports car, its incredible. It corners like a champ too!

Dude!! We live right next to each other! I'll pm you and hopefully we can meet up sometime.

Here are some recent pictures for you guys. Took the truck "off-road" for some cool shots. Then went straight to the car wash!

Also, check out my brother's first video of my x5m on vimeo...



Let me know what you think.

I daily drive this beast and just hit 40k. I managed to put 26,000 miles on her in about a year and a half. I can't stop driving! Such an incredible machine

The lowered stance makes it look sooo damn mean in the rolling shots!! wish I could run kw's but I dont think its a good idea since I have to drive in the snow

but the truck looks amazing man, great video

What size are you wheels,10 inch front and 11" rear?
Did the X5M lower more once the springs settle?
how bad is the ride and can you have passenger in the rear with your set up?
