First of all, I want to thank mods of this forum. Great source of information for BMW owners. Well done!!!
After Googling and reading for 2 days now, I finally know what I want when it comes to wheels and tiers. From what i've been reading, the best price performance is to go with replica 20" Staggered wheels (9.5F/10.5R) and Toyo Proxes S/T tires 275/40/20 (front), 315/35/20 (rear). I found two sources on Ebay who can sell me the wheels that I want. Both suppliers seem to be well rated but there is difference in price for visually the same wheels. I will buy from one of these suppliers, but need your help to decide where to go and why.

I'm sure 20" wheels and wide tires is one of the major subjects when it comes to X5 and I hope to see your feedbacks here. Thanks.
I'm driving 2003 X5 3.0i, it is at 72,000KM now and still with original OEM Michelin Energy 235/65/R17 MXV4 Plus tires. Tire thread at 3/32 (time to change).
