I have the factory style 128 21" wheels and have zero reservations except for astronomical tire cost. Too difficult to post a pic from mobile, but you can google e70 style 128.

Thanks for the response and input Mathis.
The 128 21" wheels look great on the X5. What kind of tire sizes are you running? Are you staggered or have spacers in rear?
Interesting decision on the warranty. I was told that the warranty companies actually lose money on the cars like the X5, but they already make enough on other reliable cars like the Camry, Prius etc.
Just thought the 4 year 48,000 for under $3k sounded like a decent deal. would cover the car up to 82,000 miles.
Still debating...
