Dang that chick who's driving the red one just drove it over the curb and onto the sidewalk area! :rolleyes: :D What size rims are those anyway? Doesn't that hurt it's offroad abilities?
Stockman 09-07-2001, 03:12 PM I think even BMW says it has no real offroad capability
its designed for the road.. novel idea..

I know plenty of people that HAVE gone off roading with their X's with no problems, so I dont know.
Rel44 M3 09-07-2001, 03:34 PM I know they've done offroad testing in some of the car rags with the X5 and it's completed the testing fine. Don't know though.
Preppy 09-07-2001, 04:38 PM Heh, when you recieve your X5 upon purchasing it, you recieve a video of how to operate your X5........well, my mom got one at least, but on the video there are some sweet shots of an X5 plowing through the sand on some off-road course

Too bad he backed up on that stupid truck and wrecked the rear end :(
Then of course, that guy bleed to death in the back seat. Wonder who cleaned that mess up ;)
Stockman 09-07-2001, 05:41 PM I have seen cop cars go through corn fields... doesnt say much..
and the car pretty much fell apart by the end of the movie...
it may be able to go off the paved road... but I highly doubt it could do any medium offroading - its not really built for it.. its designed for the street.. so keep it that way
I have seen plenty of X's OFF ROADING too the full extent in still photos and video with NO problem, they are capable of this, and it is shown in the X5 features and operation video. :D

Stockman 09-08-2001, 03:31 AM Here is what BMW says:
Is the X5 meant for off-road driving?
The BMW X5 is specifically engineered for the needs of active lifestyles. It features all-wheel drive, advanced traction systems, and a robust design that includes integrated skid plates for occasional use on poor roads. The X5's suspension and ground clearance are optimized to perform superbly on all road conditions, rather than off-road.
Preppy 09-08-2001, 11:57 AM Yeah, we know the X5 was not meant for off-roading, hell, if I ever saw somebody do it, I would get and slap them (or slap myself in my car like BC :D) but then again, some people feel the need to take it off-road b/c they think the X5 is an SUV (although it's classified as an SAV)
ok well thats all well and good , but I still have seen what I have seen, so whatever people that own this car, want to do with it is no business of mine, would I ever take mine truley off roading, hell no, but like I said others have.
Katt
Preppy 09-09-2001, 12:25 AM I'm not doubting you for one moment Katt, ya I do agree with ya, I would kill my dad if he took my mom's x5 off road.....
Although we are going to take it up into the mountains during the winter, the AWD will help out :D

Those are Antera wheels in a 22!!!!!! Very nice. Looks really tight on a silver X5!!

Yeah yeah, it'll be free Nikki, don't you worry :D
But you'll forever be known as the girl who slapped herself in the car :128:
Rel44 M3 09-09-2001, 03:07 PM Getting back to the 20" and 22" rims, how much do tires go for something that size? And who makes them? Just curious.
DeezBMW 09-09-2001, 03:18 PM Toyo makes a set of tires for those. I think Nitto does too. I am not sure what they cost though. The 22s run around $900 each for silver so I would Imagine the tires are over $300 a piece. I think it looks tight as hell though. I saw an Escalade with 22s on it. Damn did it look good!!!

Aw, you can trust me..........I'm also studying to become a PsychOlogist :D
blondechick 09-09-2001, 08:15 PM no i can't trust you! you're the root of it all! i know you are. that's why i'm demanding therapy
Preppy 09-09-2001, 08:18 PM But how can I treat you if you don't trust me? :conf:
blondechick 09-09-2001, 08:25 PM i don't know.but i trust no one because of you so i might as well be treated by you (for free ::smiles:: )
Preppy 09-09-2001, 09:47 PM Doh......looks like I might be losing a lot of money from this :(
blondechick 09-09-2001, 09:54 PM yupp, yupp you will.
Rel44 M3 09-09-2001, 11:44 PM But you'll have the pleasure of having BC tell you everything on her mind... :rolleyes:

lol, yeah shingo I think it was one of the one and only times that you were way out front when we were on the freeway and not stuck in the back behind some eclispe( no offense to eclipse ,of coarse),lol.
It was way beyond cool meeting you for the first time also, and I am soooooooooo glad you did bring your X and we got "special" treatment, hint hint, and boy were we troopers or what, staying till the very very end, but it was worth it and fun. The second time when we went back too dairy queen I was going to through in the towel if you did, but I am glad we went back out again because it was fun, cant wait to see the vid's and pic's of us,lol, and of me doing some crazy and intresting stuff in the X, hehe.
Hope too see you next Sunday as well , I will be there to do it all again, take care.
Katt
:D
TurboBMW3 09-10-2001, 03:09 AM Hahaha...it was cool. Thanks for encouraging me to bring the X today.
I was gonna head out...at the second time we met at DQ also...but Marita keep saying that we needed both of the Xs there.
But..you really do amazing stuff with your X...i gotta learn a few tips from you. That one time after the "race" for instance. CRAAAZZZZZZY~!!! Big props to you for that~!!!:D
yeah one day maybe I can teach you a few things, cause you just aren't handling that fine piece of equipment called the x5, you need lesson's, from the master.........................ME.:cool:
first we will start on" type of gas", this is lesson one,lol.
Katt
p.s shingo do you have aim and what is your sreen name if you do? you gotta get in the "socal" plus chat room.
Rel44 M3 09-10-2001, 11:22 AM Katt, please enlighten me, what kind of "amazing" things can you do with your X5? :confused:

Donuts baby Donuts..........check the Katt vs. Shingo thread and you'll see, albert posted a crazy pic of me doing a victory dance all in Shingo's face, lol.:D
Katt
TurboBMW3 09-10-2001, 05:03 PM LOL
Too bad we didnt have a cam-corder.... i never thought you can do a donut in a X5~!
But Katt..you have proven me wrong. :eek:
Preppy 09-10-2001, 08:51 PM Whoa, I'm too scared to do a donut in my 328is, much my moms x5 :eek:
Rel44 M3 09-10-2001, 10:31 PM Well, I'll make sure to try out the "donut factor" on anything else I test drive to make sure it holds up to the X5. ;)
Preppy 09-14-2001, 03:55 PM Hey Rel, do any donuts in your m3 yet?
Rel44 M3 09-14-2001, 04:22 PM Yeah, I've done Krispy Kremes and Dunkin Donuts in my M3! ;)
I did do a donut once on the street in the winter. Gave her a little too much throttle on a turn. Whoops. It was late and nobody was around so no biggie. :)
Preppy 09-14-2001, 07:03 PM mmmmmm, Dunkin Donuts........*drool* (Homer style)
Haha, yeah? in the snow or was the street just iced?
