E70 x5 Megan lowering springs review

[AMERICANDREAM]

First off i will say this is my first truck! I had over 20 cars but this is my first bmw.

I own a 2009 x5, silver. Non air ride, no third row seat.

The car came with megan lowering springs, which felt ok at first. But as i kept driving the ride got worse. They were brand new when i bought the truck, i loved the drop look but the handling got worse everyday. I thought the springs needed to settle as with any lowering springs, that was not the case.

I could not drive in the rain cause the car would slide and the back would fishtail. These springs are very bad for our trucks . Im writing this review because i have never found a review for these megan springs. I searched online many times but never found anything. Maybe i had a defected set, maybe its my truck? I dont know.

In anycase i just want everyone to be safe. With that being said i would not recommend these springs by any means at all!

I bought new stock oem springs, put them on and now the ride is amazing! Please be safe out there, the cheap route is not always the best!

Maybe its the shocks. Stock shocks arent up to the task of the rates of lowering springs.

It could be, but i know the shocks at least werent blown. I changed the shoks first then the springs. But you are right it could be that the shocks cant handle the springs. But no car i ever lowered with stock shocks on aftermarket springs, ever handled so bad. But again this is a truck were talking about.

Megan is low cost junk. Common on Asian import cars
