why would it deactivate active cruise control and lane change assist? I'm lowered on factory air and i still have all those features.

Yes, factory air suspension system does not affect it. But I'm wondering if aftermarket springs would.

wheels and lowering links installed. i think my offset of 20-25 f/r is close to flush. i think i can easily run 5-7mm more in the front and maybe 12-15 in the rear. Also what tire pressure are people running to 22" i think the shop set it at 40 for mine









​​​​​​Hello, I'm in the process of getting new 22" wheels for my Q7, and therefore I'm interested in your setup, you say that with 22x10,5" ET 25/20 you have room for spacers, but in the photos it seems quite flush, could you provide a closeup photo? sorry to bother you, and thanks in advance for your help, I think it'll help me make a choice. Also do you think if you'd mounted 295/35 22, there would also be room for spacers?

I actually went 5mm wider front and rear. So effectively an et 20/15 setup now. fronts are perfect and the rear could go another 5mm but i'm ok with how they sit now. 295 would definitely fit i'm considering moving to a 305/35 when these tires wear out.

Thanks a lot for your help. The 305 will still have spacers?

Hello, again sorry to bother you again, I've found an interesting set of rims with the following specs 22x10'5" ET14, do you think that with 285/35 22 tyres, they'll poke too much?
Thanks in advance for your help!

yes i’m On sport air, is an option here in Europe, it leaves bearly a few cm of gap in the dynamic setting, to the point where I think that a little poke may rub.
