SAVant is on a distinguished road
Personally I would be on the lookout for someone selling their OEM wheels, maybe from a 4.4i Sport, 4.6is or 4.8is. I really like the look of some of the OEM wheels and then you know the quality is good as well. Having said that, I did purchase aftermarket wheels to run on my X in the winter as I was pressed for time and couldn't find anything locally.

One thing to look out for - most aftermarket rims are not load rated to handle what you could potentially put in your X. I believe, if memory serves, that most aftermarket wheels are rated to 690kg, but you need 720kg or better...
