I'm pretty sure the dinan suspension is going to fit my needs. I can't see it not performing well. Plus it keeps all the EDC functionality and the warranty..
Also spoke to dinan and they have a down pipe and intake coming in a few months and as soon as they get a new m5 they r going to release stage 2 engine software.

nice! pipes and stage 2...im ready and waiting

i would avoid wheel spacers all together.

there has been extended discussion regarding spacers on m3post and the consensus is that it will increase load on the wheel bearings and definitely have long term harmful effects.

not to mention the X5 is significantly heavier to the effects would presumably be exaggerated.
