lowering maybe??

hey guys! a buddy of mine just got an 07 X5 and he put some 22's on it. and im sure ill get flamed a bit for this thread but just trying to help a buddy out .

he doesnt go off road or anything obveously with the 22's, but he got the truck as a type of nice family car, and needs to be able to haul stuff from time to time.

i think that if we could low it about 2 inches it would be perfect.

any ideas? segestions?

Thanks guys!

anyone??

i have been looking around at Dinan, Eibach, and HR but no one seems to have anything for an 07'

and would springs be the only thing it would take to lower it??

Since the E70 just came out, he's probably going to have to wait atleast 3-4 months for a legit company to make something.

Does he have air suspension? If so, he'll either need to lower it via DIS at the dealer, or some company like H&R will make end links for it.
