offset differences between X5M and X6M?
Is the hub to outside of fender distance the same on an X5M as it is on an X6M, such that a perfect offset would be perfect on either vehicle?

IIRC, the X5M and X6M use the same exact wheels.
299M or 300M

This is what I was thinking. With all due deference to Gerry's balls, since stock wheels are interchangeable, the hubb to fender distance should be the same right? Can anyone else confirm or discredit this theory?

Should be the same just different vehicles from the rear doors back. Not having the flares on the X6M make a big difference in appearance which would make one think the offsets are different I'm thinking.

That stance is definitely wider than stock - not that that is a bad thing.

nice - those are 22's? the rears are 11" wheels, right? what offset in the rear? Do you have spacers in the front, too? what offset and size spacer? You are looking nice and flush!
Now drop that beast! Excuse me while I thread jack my own thread!

22x10.5 et40 up front 22x11.5 et38 in the rear. With 25mm spacers on the back it brings the offset down to 13. Dinan suspension is currently installed, contemplating KWV3's... Keep telling myself "but it's an SUV". I'll probably cave in soon enough! No spacers up front in these pics.

As I told you in a different thread, the only coilovers system compatible with the X5 is the v3.

They don't offer a v1 or v2. I wish they would, they would sell so many more if they did. I have a set of v1's on the M5 and and it's a perfect balance for those that want a great ride and a great drop...
