Thanks Sean. It's all personal taste but I love mine, it was an amazing upgrade and set the look exactly the way I wanted it- worth every penny. I would highly recommend them for your X5M, you will love them and the improved look. The ride is much smoother and handling was better too. I am putting my 20's back on in a few weeks for winter. I get compliments all the time on mine. I am considering a black pair of 215's for my wife's White X5 next spring. Hope that helps. Gary was very helpful in helping me with my decision.
