Mark - Truck looks OUTSTANDING! Love the wheels!!! You need to post some "before" and "after" pix, so people get to really see everything you've done.

Well done brotha! Welcome to the club!

You might want to consider the X-Pipe for $90 that AutoAnything sells. Neil (LI-M5/LI-X5) did this on his X5, instead of the exhaust and it sounds FANTASTIC! It's also much cheaper and has no drone in the car. You might want to consider...

I am.

PS - Kerry is on the verge of lowering his X5 and I'm probably going to follow shortly thereafter. According to members on X5World, the ride feels as good as stock. The front lowers 1.2 and the rear uses links, instead of Springs (due to the air ride rear suspension), so that's adjustable up to 2". We shall see...

Who said X5's weren't moddable?!?!?!?!

Hey C, Thanks! Good idea. I'll post those before and afters later. I looked at that X-pipe, but I already ordered my staggered quad tips and I know a guy at a custom exhaust shop local that will do his best to duplicate this...

Sick huh?

I'm probably going to lower mine as well. I am just trying to figure out where to buy the custom links for the rear. I think my wife thought "Oh good he has the SUV now I don't have to worry about UPS and FedEx showing up every other day with something for his car" WRONG! Hence why I kept the little statement at the end of my signature!
