I had 21" non-RF on the Audi, and now 20" RF on the X5, but both to me have a very similar ride. The G05 with air is certainly not harsher in the slightest to me compared to the Q, but without air my experience with the F15 was that it felt like a Conestoga wagon crossing the prairie.
Great feedback. Thanks! The q7 air suspension is by far the best riding SUV I've ever been in. Good to hear the x5 air is just as good.

What about the other side of the coin? The q7 air suspension in dynamic mode is actually very capable and makes the car handle pretty well (for the size and what the q7 is). How about sport+ on the x5? Does it have a similar jekyl and Hyde ability like the q7?
