The Rear wheels of the X6 fits with the rear wheels of the e53........the front wwill need hub centric ones......here i attach the pics...

As What i did today..swap out the wheels from the X6 Rear to x5.....one at a time first the LEft drove it on the hiway......still shaking .......then switch the right one now.....drove it.....still shaking.......so i figure....it cant be the wheels (e53 black ones).....then i took off the spacers put the black e53 wheels.....drove it on the hiway...i feel a little vibration.....still there so now im thinking it may not be the spacers after all..the spacer may just make it more noticeable than usual.....so now...im torn....what can it be.....can this vibration cause rotors from the rear wheels?......or is it something else....

so now my trial and error were
H&R 25mm spacer causing vibration...

got tires rear....
balanced it..
alignment...
swtich brand spanking new tires and rims from the X6 to e53 rear both sides...
took off spacers...
still have a light vibration....BTW the vibration feels Up n Down kinda.
BUT Girlfriend says.."it starts to feel like when you get a flat"....idk if that helps...
maybe road force balancing will help...now i did not check the front...ive had the feeling coming from the rear....maybe its coming from the front ...but we feel it under our seat....
