Only "mod" you might have to do is add hubcentric rings - that is what I had to do with mine. These 20s are made to fit the E70, so the hubs were a little larger. If you get wheels made for the E53, then you should have no additional mods.

the 87's fit right on....no hubcentric rings required. thats only for e70 wheels the 87's were developed for the e53. just buy the wheels and bolt right on.

Yeah .. I think thats a reasonable price for replicas .. they even have the same offsets as the originals.

Is that price for all 4? BTW does anyone have any opinions on some aftermarket wheels that are reasonably priced that actually look good on a stock x5. I have seen some wheels but I feel they always look awkward. OEM just seems to be the way to go.
