At 5000 lbs, the X5 is a pig. You were the one talking about handling and being "performance oriented".

I personally feel that 325 is wayy overkill for the X5. It's just for looks. I can't believe there's any performance gain. In fact, The large/heavy tire and wheel setup probably make you slower.

It definitely lags. With this vehicle I no longer pull out in front of traffic and gun it. I give myself a lot more time. Putting the tranny in DS mode does help some.
