Yes might be selling her soon ! Did lots of shows and magazines . Thanks lowering my X tomorrow and putting on some 22's HRE black satin .

whats the verdict on the headlight adjustment?

Coding was needed. Not adjustable otherwise, I believe.

Just got it lowered and its dirty from the Alberta winter :o

It is alot bouncier than I expected after having several vehicles in the past that were lowered the X5 with H&R is by far the biggest deterioation in ride quality on the hiway it is ok but on poor roads its horrible :(

Is that the 1.2" lowering kit? Or the 2"?

1.2" the pictures were right after they were installed so they might settle a bit more. I haven't measured the drop amount yet.

Looks really good! Shame the ride can't be a little better

Looks great but it looks more like a 2" kit than the 1.2' kit. Sits really low in the front for a 1.2" kit and I would hate to see it after it settles some more.

When I lowered by Cayenne GTS via tricking the system it was like driving on rails on smooth surfaces/corners but hit a bump and it was over. Teeth would rattle ;)

Looks great though but you can't daily drive something that lowered all the time.

The reason it looks like the 2 inch kit is because the 1.2" drop rating is for the 3.0i motor which is much lighter. This makes the actual drop from the 1.2" springs more like 1.75" with heavier turbo and v8 motors.

I would like to measure it but I am not in the same city as the truck right now and I wanted to wait until it settled out. I was told the 35d isn't near as heavy as the V8 but I haven't looked into it much myself. I haven't mentioned my opinion of the ride quality to my wife and I am going to see if she notices it. Although it will be a couple weeks between times she has driven it so it might not notice the huge difference like I did driving it a few hours apart. I am quite disappointed and may yet end up with KWs, I do wonder about the eibachs now I couldn't find a definitive answer on which had better ride quality eibachs vs H&R :dunno:
