I agree , i have 21's in my car and i can't find non RFT option for it other than Toyo tires , stock RFT continentals are way too hard and noisy, I'm done with RFT tires.

The M60i is my third X5 and it came with non RFT tires. The other two (2011 & 2017) had RFTs. I ordered them with a spare and immediately put Michelin non RFTs on them. Was able to get a few $$ for the takeoffs but I hate RFTs.

[QUOTE=postbox1918;30513572]Sorry for the confusion, i was asking about the front and rear diffusers

No problem. Brand is NINTE. All fake carbon fiber, but looks good and great quality for the pricing. My body shop said rear diffuser didn’t fit perfectly so they had to make some “adjustments” whatever that means. Either way looks good.

Also, for those wondering, I have rear tow hitch and this was able to fit over that.

What kind of side mirror covers did you use. From aliexpress ? Reason I'm asking is because I bought some cheap gloss black ones as well, but the fitment is garbage and has a little wind noises. Don't get me wrong, looks great only if they would line up correctly.

List of performance mods you've done?

Looking good! Do you have lowering springs or does it look lowered because of the aero-kit?

They are reps, but you'd never know it by the price or fitment and I mounted them.
