Not a fan of chrome, in any size on any car. Just too blingy.

Will take pics in the a.m. if I have time. Just did the chrome thing today, and it's waaaaay too ostentatious, so I'll be removing them on Monday. Don't do it!


Edit: Here's a pic. Waaaaay too much bling.

I have the chrome 87's and get nothing but compliments and i lvoe the way it looks. I have a black 4.4 and think chrome really sets it off nicely. I think the style and size have allot to do with chrome being a good choice or not. I will post pics tommorrow for you.

It depends on color of X5. Chrome 87's look good on imola red, I have seen it on quite a few X5s. Keep in mind that imola red is a little on the blingy side to begin with.

Chrome belongs on Chevys. Let the X5 keep the spartan German look it was born with.

Why in the hell would you want to put 22" wheels on an X in the first place? If you want your vehicle to look like some Pimp My Ride bullshit then go for it. Or better yet trade it in on a Cadilac Escalade then you can fit in.
