Hello Everybody,

I am looking to Lower my X5 M60i. I want to do it and use the best options possible on the market. The car is equipped with Adaptive M Suspension Pro. Are there any lowering kits available on the market? Any recommendations or tips provided will be appreciated.

I’ll be looking into the AC Schnitzer springs. They give a ca 20mm drop, so should not reduce the shock absorbers’ longevity too much

Other option is H&R, which drops the car above 35mm, but squeezes the shocks’ travel too much according to my friend who runs a tuning shop (and who advised against the H&Rs due to considerably increased operating pressures in the shocks and thus their potentially reduced lifespan)

Then, there are the various KW solutions, but that’s a considerably greater cost, and the suspension is generally much stiffer than stock

Where can you find the ac schnitzer ?

I’m in Europe, so AC Schnitzer are generally available over here. Not sure if they ship to US - but maybe some distributors exist or would be willing to import?
