2 inch is no problem we do lots and strech to 144 i doubt 2.5 will fit unless you change drivers
M
it has drivers off an m7
B
I think your buddy should change the rear mounting brackets from M too. They are higher.

hey bearcat hows the snow over there, on thread reply.is the m7 smaller sprockets?i know 3 inch spaceing but are they physical smaller?

M7's have extrovert drivers..X-fires do not.

We don't have enough snow but luckily there's a lot more at north 
CF has 9 tooth 2,62" sprockets and M 8 tooth 3". If you calculate sprocket circumferences you get: 9*2,62=23,58 and 8*3=24. This means M sprockets are actually little bigger (longer circle). So if M can run 2.5 lugs, CF should also But the extroverts are way better...
I changed my CF to 144" with 2" lugs and noticed there's not much space over rear arm when you press it totally in. Those higher brackets gives more space over the rear arm.

would changing to those m7 rear brakets work with my stock suspension
No, the stock Xfire rear swing arm is basically the same width of the tunnel for the stock drop brackets. The M has a wider rear swing arm by around 1".
If you look closely the M drop brackets, they angle away from the tunnel by around .5" on each side.

I own a 2007 crossfire 8, I am currently running a polaris 2.4 144. The track fits fine. Stock drivers. I did find that the 60/60 gears were to tall, causing excessive belt heat in heavy snow. Now running 55/65 gears, much better.
