I don't believe you can't do this with the 87's or the cheese chrome plated ones shown earlier on this train.
X5 on "cheese chrome plated" 24''s


X5 on 20'' classic chrome plated 87's


Learning the difference between the two: Priceless!

Simple. A non stag setup. Those wheels were the reason I feel in love with the X5, and if they looked as good in a non stag setup I would have kept it that way. Cheesy and 87's don't belong in the same sentence chrome or not

No offense but chrome wheels (87's or not) are just to much bling/too ghetto IMHO

Nice X and wheels. Could stand a little lowering but maybe you like it that way. Either way, X and wheels look darn good!

Staggered setup only adds more understeer. It is purely a cosmetic choice IMO. Maybe beneficial in putting power down in high powered RWD cars, but probably styling for the X cars.

I might be selling my 20's of the 168 after seeing this. I too think it could be dropped alittle but the 22's look great!!
