Eibach Sportline will lower it about another .8 of an inch. Basically it makes a drop of 1.8 inches. I think the Pro only drops it an inch. You may want to check if they have Sportlines for the X though.

yea KW's are the best. they are coilovers and very expensive but worth it. if you were referrring to just springs i'd wouldnt really know how low you can go with them. there all pretty much the same in how much lower the car will go but the way the ride feels is different.

I too have the Eibach Pro Kit and yes, according to Eibach it lowers the X5 1" to 1.25"...I never heard of sportline though. It would be interesting to see.

Let me know how it goes Bimmer King if you decide to go that route. I'd definitely like to see the results.
