M6 Replica Wheels on ebay?

Looking to get a set of m6 reps for my X. There is one auction in particular that says they are for an X5 ( http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/20-M6...QQcmdZViewItem ), but im not looking to spend that much. Will any of http://motors.search.ebay.com/?from=R40&satitle=m6+rims those rims fit the same as that first link? Thanks guys (and girls).

Those particular M6 wheels (made by ALT aka Miro) have been selling at least 1.5 years and I have yet to see an X5 equipped with them. My biggest issue is that they are the wrong offset. OEM offset for 19" X5 staggered wheels are 48mm F and 45mm R; these Miros are 20mm F and 25mm R. Your front wheels will extend out by 28mm (1.10"), the rears by 20mm (0.79").

Is the offset change significant enough to be unattractive? Hard to say without actually seeing the wheels installed on an X5.

Well the first link shows them on an X and they look great. Do you think there will be any problem getting them on an balancing them?
