Love it
With the very affordable price of the e53 X5, i've been seriously thinking the same thing.

I know it will never be a serious off road vehicle
But the ability to at least go off the black top with some ground clearance and a reasonable entry and exit angle, it would make it more useful vehicle for some

Is there any other works that are needed?

Suspension work?
Or is it just replacing the wheels?

I am very concerned about front end damage with the X5, there is a lot of $$$ parts which break easy with a frontal impact.

That's kind of our thoughts with these things!

We are currently accepting pre-orders for the lift kit which provides a 1.5" lift. Beyond that, the front bumper is build to order and we are currently building another for an international order so the next would be about 1-2 weeks out.

Beyond that you'll have some wheel options! We're currently building another E53 that will be running OEM E39 M5 wheels along with the bigger tires.

Light bar pricing with mounts will be priced at $499!

We were also getting sick of staring at a stock rear bumper so we're working up something much more entertaining.
