I remember the first time I saw these on a brand new '00 X and thinking "what a beast!" At the time no one else had anything close to the style or aggression that these wheels represented. It was quite an impression.
Every other automaker has since stepped up to 20" wheels and GM is now putting 22s" on their Escalades and Denalis (least not forget BMW is putting 21s on some E70s). Yes, we are talking about size... the 63s at the time were enormous, but they were also beautiful and mezmorizing!
I think this is why I like the 214s so much; they put the 63 flavor back into a new wheel that looks right at home and updates the look of an e53. Long Live the e53!!!
