X5 Questions
 

i have some questions that i have been wondering.

1. i know the 4.4 sport wheel set up is 9.5 fronts and 10.5 rears...what are some of you run, do you guys run staggered or just same size all the way around and which is better

2. The ones that have the X-pipe installed, does it drone when your at a cruzin speed like 70 or at 2500-3000 rpm?

3. the ones that have the x-pipe and aftermarket exhaust how loud is it?

1) only if it comes with the special order Star Spoke 87 wheels - I believe 2001-2003 4.4i Sport came with V spoke 63 (9''/10") as standard - both sets are 19" wheels - 2004-2006 standard setup was non-staggard 8.5 x 18" all around (acouple different wheel types) - afew have complained about uneven wear, but both my 2001 (V spoke 63) and my 2006 (Star spoke 132) so far have shown remarkably even wear

2) I have no experience

3) my 2001 4.4i Sport with Dinan exhaust actually quiets down as you pickup speed, but gives awesome sound off the line and when downshifted

hope that helped
