I am personally going to run 245/35/20 and 285/30/20 combo myself which has identical rolling diameter front and rear for my xdrive car.

Hi Alan I,
I just love the ACS drop on your F10 530d xDrive. Did you do the drop yourself or do you/ can you post a picture of the front strut (as it is - installed in your ride)?

I would like to see how different the AWD strut is compared to the RWD strut, as Realoem only shows images of the RWD strut (even when you specify the F10 ix series).

Cheers
