XYZ Racing Super Sport Coilovers — BMW X5 G05 4WD (NON AIR STRUT) (Cancellation Kit for Electronic Damping) 2018-2026

The G05 X5 was built around air suspension and adaptive damping logic that constantly second-guesses the driver. Strip that hardware out and the chassis underneath is a heavy, long-wheelbase 4WD SUV that wants a damper with genuine authority over body mass – not a software layer pretending to manage it. The XYZ Racing Super Sport coilover for the BMW X5 G05 was designed for exactly that conversion: a mechanical kit with a built-in cancellation harness that takes the electronic damping signal out of the equation cleanly.

For the fast-road G05 owner who wants the X5 to sit lower, feel tied-down on a B-road, and still cope with a Tesco run on Sunday, the Super Sport sits in the right place in the XYZ range. Ride-height adjustable, 36-way damping, and a spring-and-shock package the driver actually controls.

What this coilover does for your 2018-2026 Bmw X5

Drop a G05 50mm and the visual transformation is obvious, but the real change is at the contact patch. With the air struts and electronic damping gone, the X5’s front end stops pogo-ing on motorway expansion joints and the rear stops squatting under throttle in a way air-suspended SUVs always do when loaded. The 36-way damping range lets you run it softer for the daily commute and wind it firmer for a weekend on twisty roads, without touching the height. Turn-in sharpens because the dampers are now reacting to the road rather than to a control unit. Body roll through faster corners reduces, brake-dive on the heavy nose is noticeably calmer, and the steering loads up properly mid-corner instead of going light as the air system tries to level the car.

About the Super Sport coilover

The Super Sport is XYZ Racing’s fast-road-with-track-capability damper, and the spec sheet reflects that brief. It runs 36-way damping adjustment via a single knob per corner, which moves both bump and rebound together – quick to set, hard to get wrong. Ride height is fully adjustable at the lower spring perch, so corner weights and stance are dialled at the bottom rather than by pre-loading the spring. The damper itself is built to take repeat heat cycles from weekend track use while remaining civil enough that XYZ specifies it for daily driving. For the G05 specifically, the kit ships with the electronic damping cancellation harness, which is the part that matters: it suppresses the fault codes the car would otherwise throw when the OE adaptive struts disappear from the CAN bus.

Fitment for the Bmw X5 (2018-2026)

This kit is built specifically for the G05 X5 4WD platform, chassis code BM111-C, covering model years 2018 through 2026. Critically, it fits the non-air-strut variant only and includes the cancellation kit required to remove the electronic damping signal cleanly. If your G05 is running air suspension at any corner, this is not the kit.
