Sport Suspension Shock Options
Mine is one of the X5s ordered with the Sport suspension option box checked, and has air springs in the back only. It's getting close to 180,000 miles, and I think it's still on the original shocks & struts, so I've been looking at replacing them. I've checked with the dealer & ECS Tuning, and was told that OEM is the only option for the Sport suspension, but the cost for all that is pretty astronomical; fronts are about $380 each and rears $225. Ouch.
I really doubt there is much fitment difference between the shocks/struts spec'd for the Sport suspension vs. the non-Sport. Has anybody with the Sport suspension been adventurous (and cheap) with shock replacement?
