See, this comment kills me. Basically you are saying, "Go spend your money on wheels that will make your X5 look like everyone else's X5."

WHY???????!!!!!!!!! Granted I like the size and width of the bigger wheels, but frankly the factory BMW wheels are not all that. If you are going to spend money on new wheels, why not be different and make your X stand out from the pack!!!

Ok - I'm done. I feel better. WhiteWhip, you got any more of those pills???

IMO: point of rims is to compliment a vehicle

1st thought: nice ride
2nd thought: nice wheels, what kind are they?

When most after market rims are purchased it is the reverse in my experience.

1st thought: nice wheels
2nd thought: what kind of car is that?

I'm a fan of after market wheels when they compliment the ride...such as Breytons on a Bimmer or BBS on a P-car.

Thank You X5Dawg. U are one of the few on this site that will admit that Bmw wheels are not the greatest and that everyone gets the same 5 or 6 types
