Lowering x6 m60i with DHP?

It looks like the x6 m60i with DHP (Adaptive M Suspension Professional) doesn’t have air suspension. What would be the simplest way to lower it? H&R springs?

For best ride quality, I would go with MSS.

r33_RGSport ride quality in what way? Less stiff? More like OEM?

Also your website doesn’t really say how much the mss springs lower the car

MSS more comfortable than H&R sport spring.
MSS lowers about 1.5” IIRC.

r33_RGSport thank you for info. Which would have a ride more similar to the OEM? I’m mostly just looking for the lowered look.

MSS is, hence I have recommended MSS over H&R.

r33_RGSport just noticed that the the LCI X6M has standard Dynamic Damper Control with rear-axle air suspension. Would I still be able to get new springs (MSS, H&R, or Dinan) on this model? or would need lowering links?

That is impossible.
Do you want to send over the VIN?
That set up is only on F85/F86 X5M/X6M and E70 X5M/X6M which was frown upon on many of the owners.
On F95/F96 X5M/X6M, they all came with steel springs all 4 corners.

r33_RGSport this is directly from the BMW USA website for the X6M features... https://www.bmwusa.com/vehicles/m-mo...specifications

read the "Handling, Ride and Braking" section..

Well, if that is the case, nothing available yet in the market.
And I have yet to see 2024 F95/F96 X5M/X6M with rear axle air suspension.
The 2024 X5M and X6M that I recently worked on doesn’t have rear axle air suspension.

Just pulled a VIN on 2024 X6M at local dealer and ran it with BMW parts catalog.
It still comes with coil spring all around.

Car was built 12/23.
