20s would be the biggest that I would want to go on the 168. They already look like wagon wheels in 20s. The rubberband thin tires for the 22s will exacerbate the "wagon wheel" effect.

22s, not my ride.


Theres been two x5s in my family and between them, i've driven on 17s,18s,19s, 20s, and 22s.

17 and 18s = comfort
19 and 20s = sporty and firm
22s = very firm but you feel like your on rails on the hard turns.

j0nblayz: If you gonna get a stock looking wheel, jump on those wicked-fast. Did you get a gander at the X Krunk Man posted? Tell me thats not a smokeshow! Hot like fire! Everyone sez 22s are too firm, too stiff, too big. Those kats are giving you an opinion ( I doubt any of them has rocked 22s). I roll on 22s, sometimes at 145mph. I guess now I can sell my second set of 87s and get those and roll 22s all year long.......
