as for OE I would love OE but it is really expensive. I just overall want really nice complimenting wheels for the right price or the best bang for the buck so anything I see will help me with my decision.

As of yet though I had an update on my engine being blown at the dealership so its not looking good on wheels.

Search: "Dealer blows my 4.8is engine" to follow the most ridiculous nightmare of a story an x5er can ever run into..

Definitely do not do 8.5" in the front, I'm wary of 9" in the front too.


If you want OE look without OE price, check out this sellers listings on ebay. I bought a set of 168's from this exact guy with Toyo Proxes ST2 tires for 1850 shipped over the summer, phenomenally impressed with the quality and love the wheels for the price. Unless there were huge defects I'm not spending double the price to say I bought my wheels at the dealer. Seller is "wheel tech tuning" and other members here have bought from him and been pleased. He sells 214s and the X5M wheels as well, in Matte Black, Gloss Black, or Silver. I showed you a listing for the Toyo tires but he sells Continental DWS for more, or a budget brand tire for less. Hope that helps.

And I am following your engine thread as well I know you have bigger fish to fry, just thought I'd help.
