After spending a few hours on debating which spacers to get for our X5MC, I decided to go for 15mm spacers in the Front, and 18mm in the Rear on stock suspension.

Although it looks flush, I still wish I went with 20mm or even 25mm spacers in the Rear for more aggressive look. I’ve seen a few X6M’s running 25mm on all corners that look amazing, but I wasn’t sure if the fitment would be the same for the X5M’s. I also haven’t seen anyone go over 20mmR on the X5M’s without lowering.

The current setup I’m running is as close to ‘flush’ as you’re gonna get with Pirelli tires with the stock suspension.

I think it looks great with the 15F/18R spacers. The 2mm difference for 20mm in the rears would be negligible. Do you plan on lowering it?

25mm all around is a perfect aggressive stance.

I haven't done enough research about changing the suspension and how/if it affects the car's warranty, but probably in the near future I'll get a set of springs.
