XYZ Racing Gravel Rally Coilovers — BMW X5 G05 4WD (NON AIR STRUT) 2018-2026

The G05 X5 carries well over two tonnes on a tall body, and on the steel-sprung NON AIR STRUT cars there is no self-levelling air system to fall back on when the surface turns loose. The XYZ Racing Gravel Rally coilover for the Bmw X5 G05 4WD (NON AIR STRUT) is built for exactly that job: gravel-stage rally and rallycross, where the damper does more work than any other component on the car.

This is not a fast-road lowering kit. It is a long-travel, long-spring setup made to keep a heavy xDrive SUV planted over broken sandstone, snow and silt, and to survive the loads that come from launching that mass over a crest at speed.

What this coilover does for your 2018-2026 Bmw X5 G05 4WD (NON AIR STRUT)

On gravel, grip comes from keeping the tyre on the ground, and that is where the long stroke earns its place. The extended travel lets each corner follow the surface instead of skipping across it, so the X5’s four driven wheels keep finding traction over washboard and ruts. The inverted tube design puts the stronger, larger-diameter section at the top of the strut, which resists the bending loads a two-tonne body generates when it leans hard into a loose corner. Long springs soak up the chassis vibration that hammers a stock setup on a rough stage, and the rally-tested spring rates carry the G05’s weight without bottoming out when you land it off a jump. The result is a car you can commit to through high-speed bouncy sections rather than nurse over them.

About the Gravel Rally coilover

XYZ Racing developed the Gravel Rally coilover specifically for rally racing and rallycross, where the road surface is the most punishing in motorsport. The reasoning is blunt: on a gravel stage the shock absorber is the single most important part on the car, so it has to cope with everything from sandstone to snow to silt. To do that, XYZ chose an inverted tube layout for strength, paired with a deliberately long stroke and long springs, both selected to absorb constant chassis vibration and the heavy hits that come from attacking a bouncy surface at pace. The damper has to take sustained G-force through loose corners while keeping the body under control, and every spring rate on offer has been validated by a rally team rather than picked off a chart. This is a competition damper first, aimed at drivers running the G05 in anger away from the tarmac.

Fitment for the Bmw X5 G05 4WD (NON AIR STRUT) (2018-2026)

This kit is cut for the G05-generation Bmw X5 in 4WD xDrive form, built between 2018 and 2026, and specifically the NON AIR STRUT cars running conventional steel-spring struts rather than the factory air suspension. Confirm your X5 is on the steel-strut setup before ordering, as the air-suspension chassis takes a different part.
