if you have a 4.4 (non valvetronic) X5 with stock suspension, stock 19" Y spoke rims, and michelin diamaris, i could use a ride height measurement from you.

all you need is a tape ruler. if you can, with the car on very flat ground, measure from the bottom of the rim, through the centercap, to the bottom lip of the plastic fender trim, i would really appreciate that!

would be great if you can get the droop lenght for me too. that is, jack the front of the car up so that the front tire is off the ground. then measure the bottom of the rim, through the centercap, all the way to the bottom of the plastic fender trim, that would get me the lenght of the droop.

much appreciated folks!

If no one hooks you tonight, I will tomorrow when I get mine back from service/ass rape.

Just got the X back this evening, MAF sensor was replaced, look for a late-night east coast time posting.
