Have you considered a 21" stag set up? That's as far as I would go, but like most of the guys here I concur with 87 on 20"s, ya think.

I have styling 168, they look quite sick as well and bit fresher than the 87`s. Sorry for the dirty car, they are my winter wheels

Hey rabbit congrats on the new ride.

I'll throw a few pics from my other opst of my old 2002 Sienna red X5 with 22's for your reference. They were not staggered but looked great back in 2001!

Now I'm on to a set of the wonderul 87's for our new 2006 X5. The 22's added quite a bit of weight which as you know wears on things like brake pads and rotors and most of the front end bits. Also kills acceleration a little too. Personally I think most of this negative impact is trivial but here we are modding our X5's with CAI's for a fe mroe horses so....

Anyway, check the pics of our old X5 with 22's. I think I ran 275's all around.

Good luck and enjoy!

PS The X was also lowered with the H&R kit about 1.5 inches. She handled like a champ!

What wheels are those JCAPX5, do they make them in any other finishes?

Nice X5

Very cool looking X5 with nice mods.

I have same sterling Grey 4.4 and I am looking for Wheel mods.

Some one is selling the 214 wheels and tires perfect condition , here in my neighbourhood non staggered for 900 with the nice brand new tires. Is it a good buy or should i get the staggered set? Please help me as I am so confused. I like your look and i like 87s more..

Thanks,
Sunil
