          It's refreshing to see some proper rubber on an IX.

                I think I have seen one IX with stretched tires in all my time on here.

                    That looks perfect. I have been wondering what a modest drop would look like on an alpine white 4-door iX. Really nice.

                          Weird, because I scrape my skid plate decently often and my friend (325ix), at stock ride height, seems to scrape somewhat often as well, that might just be his exhaust though because it hangs considerably lower than mine...

                            The t-case "does not show" under mine IX at all, and ive never heard the car scrape exept for rubbing som fenders at full boost.

                              Hmm, I have no idea what is scraping then, it prolly is the exhaust. Anyways, I love the way you car looks op. I can't wait to get suspension done on my car.

                                it has to be the exhaust. you'd have to basically bottom out to hit the t-case.
