They're growing on me with time, and with the KW install with some 4.8is flares may help. I think its just a mental thing.
Style 57? As in the 17" ones?

I don't think that its because your E53 is a facelift man, what happened to your stock 18" Style 133 (I believe thats the number), those Sport Package facelift wheels look great!

Style 57 in 17" does your X no justice IMO
