Are they the same size as the ///M wheels? Would they need to be modded, offset, etc. to fit on the X5M?

I like the wheel that is on the space gray above.... who makes that wheel? those are sweet.

IMHO, wheels on M need to show strength and capability to transmit power. That is why OEM ones dont look good - they have relatively "thin" spokes. Any spoke which grows wider as it approaches tyre would definetely look better... again, imho...

215s would be great too. The OEM X5/X6Ms are 20" - would changing to a 21" be problematic?

Cheers,

Style 128 OEm is certainly a good option.

What style rims are on the grey X5 in the third pic?
