Front Drop)","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe E70 X5M brought M power to the SUV world, and it still feels special every time the twin-turbo V8 spools up. You do not need it slammed. You just want it to sit like an M car instead of a lifted grocery getter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese E70 X5M lowering springs from H\u0026amp;R are built for cars without rear self-leveling, the ones with conventional rear coil springs. They drop the car approximately 1.2 inches front and 1.2 inches rear, an even, factory-looking stance that trims the wheel gap and lowers the center of gravity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eE70 X5M Lowering Springs for Coil Spring Rear Suspension\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eH\u0026amp;R designs its Sport Springs to work with the factory dampers, so there is no need to replace your shocks. The progressive spring design keeps the ride compliant over rough pavement while reducing body roll when you lean on it in a corner. Every H\u0026amp;R spring is made in Germany from shot-peened 54SiCr6 spring steel and tested in an ISO 9001 certified facility, so it holds its height. Sold by AutoTecknic, an authorized H\u0026amp;R dealer.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eH\u0026amp;R part number 50435-3. This is the Without Self-Leveling kit with the 1.2 in. front drop.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhich Kit Do I Need?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eH\u0026amp;R makes four E70 X5M sport spring kits, and the right one depends on your rear suspension and how low you want to go. Cars with factory rear self-leveling suspension use rear air springs and need a With Self-Leveling kit: 50435-2 (2.0 in. front drop) or 50435-4 (1.2 in. front drop). Cars with conventional rear coil springs need a Without Self-Leveling kit: 50435 (2.0 in. front, 1.2 in. rear) or 50435-3 (1.2 in. front and rear). To check, look behind a rear wheel for an air spring instead of a coil spring, or look for rear self-leveling suspension on your build sheet or a VIN decoder. After that, 2.0 in. versus 1.2 in. is simply your drop choice. Still unsure? Send us your VIN and we will confirm it before you order.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eH\u0026amp;R front and rear sport springs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLowers the E70 X5M approximately 1.2 in. front and 1.2 in. rear\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor vehicles without factory rear self-leveling suspension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned to work with the factory dampers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgressive spring design for a compliant ride with reduced body roll\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e54SiCr6 spring steel, shot-peened for sag and fatigue resistance, made in Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVehicle Fitment\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis H\u0026amp;R kit fits the following US-market vehicle:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBMW X5M \/ E70 (2010-2013): without factory rear self-leveling suspension\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eProfessional installation is strongly recommended.
