Short of AST Suspension making dampers for the E53 I think your only options are KW, Billies or OEM.
Personally I would try to drive, or at least ride in a E53 with Bilstein HD before you look them over. Personal perference can vary widely and you might actually like the ride of "X" damper over the opinons of others.
FYI - If you want to price Bilstein HD out I would start here: bilsteins anyone? - Bimmerforums - The Ultimate BMW Forum
I've ordered from this vendor, for another vehicle, and he was able to beat any price on the web.

I'm leaning toward spending some extra money for the KW V3 set now, but I will try to find someone with a set of HDs on their X5 just to see how it's like
Thanks for the suggestion

Haven't called them yet but I was looking on their website and found a X5 Suspension rebuild kit, which is a really nice package since I'm experiencing the squicking sound problem
