My First X5

Firstly Hello to all and thanks for all the excellent guides and tutorials on how to mod an "X".

I got my first X5 2 weeks ago and it is now exactly how I want it.

The Mods include:

22" AC Schnitzer alloys with Michelin rubber
IPOD you BMW
Audioson Amp and 10" Sub
BMW Chrome exhaust tips (The stock tips always look nasty)
Invisi Shield front and rear
Voice Command and Bluetooth

I have attached pictures of the before and after. Let me know what you think

Ride is Much better on the 22's. It feels as though it has reduced the body roll by about 50%.

I though about the 4.8 Kit but with it being Black would you see it? Has anyone got a Black 4.8 that has pix I could see

I'm not surprised that the 22"ers are sportier, but what about the ride quality on the rough stuff? I've bent a few wheels in my time driving my 328Ci (w/ 235/40 17's) around in NYC, so I'm always wary about low aspect ratios...
