I'm sure he wishes that your GT1 wizardry could help his lowering needs but his X5 has springs on all corners.

Oh .. thought he had air suspension! :( Looks like more coin needed. :rofl:

x5meister, NS, ///Michelle, Rod, Essam, Rich, Eugene, Wil, Ron, Rasta, Franc, Jose - thanks for the compliment...

Zuraxus - thanks for the advise, yeah i need those 17s during winter as i always go to mountain creek and camelback to ride my boards...

Ralphy - im keeping my 17s for the winter, as we get a good amount of snow here in NorthEast during winter. My 2 sons and CFO always ride with me during weekends so safety is top priority....

after researching about lowering kits, i think Eibachs are better than H&Rs as eibach are less stiff and bumpy. so for those who has Eibachs, how is it? how much for the install?

you bet... i thought im done after the 87s, but almost everyone here is asking for a drop...

i need to rob a bank so i can finance all these mods :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Congrats, Jayjay, on the new rims. The 87 is a "classic", goes so well with the E53.

Just my 2 cents on the lowering springs, I got the H&R for the fronts (and lowering links for the rear air). I was actually quite surprised how little difference it made to the ride. It feels pretty much as good as the original (4.6 sports).

thanks Simon.

i wish its possible to put 4.6 front kit to a facelifted X. :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
your X is one of the best here in X5world. :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
