To Align or Not to Align
I read somewhere in this forum that someone had rubbing on their rear tires or some type of problem using Toyo Proxes and that's what I am using now. 275/40 R20's FRONT 315/35 R20's REAR By the way, do you guys think I should lower my ride? I know some of you guys have lowered your X5s but from my past experience, lowering rides have always made the ride even stiffer than it is now. If you recommend lowering, what springs is best suited for X5s and how much are they? I don't have height adjustment option on mine, just to let you guys know. TIA

Nice looking replica wheels! No alignment needed but if you lower with front lowering springs then go get it aligned.

Thanks TQ2K...boy, is it that obvious that its a replica? or you're just have that good eye that you can tell...either way...oh, we're from the same country...wooohoo!
JV...i got it from O.E. Wheels in Florida. I actually saw both 19" from Wheels and Caps and these 20" from O.E. Wheels and I opted for the 20's so I didn't have to lower the ride. The caps came with the rims. Which are aftermarket made by them i believe but of course fits perfectly. Although I had original caps from BMW and it somehow doesn't fit, either the opening is too small on the rim and the trim that holds the BMW logo somewhat bulges from a few sides. They are on Ebay if you search for X5 rims, make sure you view the ones that says 20's not the 19's.

 You should really consider lowering as it would make the stance look better.  Look up our kababayan Eduard "Andaya", he's just in San Jose...

Do most dealers lower the suspension via DIS? I have a 4.8is with full air suspension. I would like to lower it a bit, not much. Maybe to the level of the suspension at its lowest setting.
