Very nice wheels. Very nice truck. Very nice E53 badge lol. Was thinking of that with the m62 in the side instead of 4.4i ...but op very cool. Imagine what u look like at the light.

Yep V3, its the only one out right now for the X5M .....the car is flat as anything no more body roll whatsoever. However i need to adjust the dampening and rebound. The car can be a bit bouncy on uneven roads.

more info on the KW V3 please. Does the kit comes with 2 front strut/spring, and 2 rear adjustable links? How do you disable the EDC? does it triggers a malfunction light?

lol, i actually use my x5 to goto the mountain!!! So deal with it :p


the KW V3 suspension w/ EDC delete (you have to make sure to order it with the termination kit)

2 front struts with threaded perch
2 front springs (you reuse your front strut mounts)
2 rear struts
2 adjustable drop links
4 EDC termination modules

I am very interested in this setup. Having had 2 cars lowered for the track with high-quality adjustable coilovers, I am not satisfied with just a suspension drop on sport springs.

If I understand correctly from your post, you still maintain the factory rear air suspension, correct? Any comments on how it handles on back roads during spirited driving?
