What didn't fit correctly on the rear suspension kit? I ordered the same kit and swapped "like for like" this weekend and everything went in smooth and easy. 2002 X5 3.0l-120,000 miles.
We'll have to run a mileage test to see how long these India "re-pack" items last. I liked the price for the whole kit but lets see if I do not spend the same amount replacing them for Lemforder parts.
I had the same issue as the OP with his rear tires running down in tread after only so many miles. Especially my rear right tire. I had the alignment done twice "within spec" and even then I ran through a new tire. Replaced all of the suspension components to bring it back to a "base line" and we'll see if this is the culprit.
