That will fit, but it's only one wheel. X5 wheels from 2000-2006 should fit.

Any X5 wheel option will fit on your application. How big do you want to go? Used is best

Second option: Refinished wheels sold by vendors
Rockauto.com (Keystone)
RimPro.com
Etc

I have a spare set of 18" wheels from a 2003 4.4 x5. I think the shipping cost will be more than the wheels. I got the wheel off my local Craigslist. I think that will be the best way to get them since you can inspect the wheel before you purchase them and you will save on shipping. Careful with any after market wheels. When I was looking for a spare set of wheels, saw a set of wheels that were aftermarket. Seller insisted that they were original because they had the BMW Roundel on the center cap, but it had concentric hub adapter. No they were not E70 wheels.

Any OE X5 Wheel, from 2000-2006 will fit...17s to 20s.
My '01 came with 18" stock, ran 17" in winter, and have had 19" style 132s for years.
