X5 Wheel Question

MitchBMW · #1 02-21-2008, 10:09 PM

I have a question. Which wheel do you guys think looks better? The 20" style #168 on the 4.8is, or the style #132 in a 20"? Just curious. I've only seen one X5 with 20" 132's, and I thought they looked hot.

#168, just my opinion. The #132's aren't bad though.

#87's are my fav. OE wheels.

I prefer the 132's...i like the larger spaces between the spokes, but that's me.

I like the 168's alot. And am thinking of getting them on my X5 4.4i. It has 19" style 132's on right now. The 87's are pretty nice as well.

I thought I liked #87s, but the longer I am here and the more I look at pictures, I think #168s look the best.

That's funny because I thought the same thing. I love the #87s. But everyone has them. I was looking for something a little different, I saw the #168s, and really liked them and thought I had decided on getting them when I get my X sometime this coming summer. But then I saw someone with #132s in 20" and I know not too many people have those in 20". So I asked the question to see what everyone here thought. I still like the #168s. I'm so undecided.

IMHO, nothing beats Style 87 with those 20" rims.

I'm going to be getting a 04 - 05 4.4. I want Black. I love how #87s, and #168s look. Just wondering if anyone has 20" #132s? And if so, can you please post some pics?

Well, here's my old 20s Style 132

And here's my new 20s Style 168

But if you ask me...I like them both. I felt the same way about Style 132s, I didn't see alot of them here in LA. I usually see alot of Style 87s that's why I opted for them. Since I got rid of my Black X5 and got a silver one I struggled with getting another Style 132 but decided to go with something different and this was my next choice!

Hey That's HOT. I like both wheels. But, I'm glad that I got to see a Black X with 20" 132s. Thanks alot. Did they feel heavy or anything? How did they feel compared to the 168's? Any difference?
