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

The G05 X5 carries well over two tonnes on a tall 4WD platform, and on the non-air-strut cars BMW leans on electronic adaptive damping to keep that mass in check. The XYZ Racing Gravel Rally coilover for the BMW X5 G05 throws out that road-biased compromise, swapping the OEM struts for a long-travel inverted-tube setup built for loose surfaces.

This is suspension developed for gravel and rallycross, not the tarmac brief most X5 owners assume. The kit ships with a cancellation kit for the electronic damping so the car’s control module stays quiet once the adaptive struts are gone, and the spring and damper rates were signed off by a working rally team rather than a spreadsheet.

What this coilover does for your 2018-2026 BMW X5 G05

At full lock on a loose surface the X5’s height and xDrive weight transfer punish a soft set-up; the Gravel Rally coilover’s long stroke lets each wheel keep tracking the ground over ruts and crests instead of skipping. The inverted-tube layout puts the larger, stronger tube section at the top where side loads are highest, which matters on a vehicle this heavy attacking high-speed, bouncy stage roads. Long springs hold the corner planted and soak up the chassis shock that would otherwise unsettle a 4WD SUV mid-bend. The result is usable wheel travel and damping that holds together over sandstone, snow or silt, where the standard adaptive struts simply run out of ideas.

About the Gravel Rally coilover

The Gravel Rally series sits at the rough-surface end of XYZ Racing’s range, developed specifically for rally and rallycross, where the road surface is the most punishing in motorsport. Construction centres on an inverted-tube damper, chosen because the loads from sandstone, snow and silt demand a stiffer, more durable strut than a conventional twin-tube can offer. Long stroke and long springs are the defining traits: they give the travel needed to absorb chassis vibration, attack high-speed bouncy sections, and carry the heavy G-loads generated when turning on a loose surface. Every spring rate in the kit was set and tested by a rally racing team, so the baseline is a competition starting point rather than guesswork. For the BMW X5 G05, that package is matched to the non-air-strut chassis and bundled with the electronic damping cancellation kit.

Fitment for the BMW X5 G05 (2018-2026)

This kit fits the BMW X5 G05 4WD in non-air-strut form, chassis code BM111-C, across the 2018 to 2026 model years. It is the variant for cars running BMW’s electronic adaptive damping, and the included cancellation kit keeps that system from flagging once the original struts are removed. Confirm your X5 runs conventional struts rather than air suspension before ordering.
