+1, 15mm might push the wheels too far out without fender flares. And it will probably require different set up too if you decide to replace the wheels with different sizes.

A big hi from Down Under. Nice looking X you got there.
Gee, there's something about a black X5. Can't put my finger on it but when I see a nice one either on here or cruising around locally I wish just for a fleeting moment that I got one.
Happy days

How do these look to you in regards to lug spacing? Also, do all 4 wheels need longer bolts, or just the rears? I want my wheels to sit flush also.

5mm - PAIR (2) OF NEW 5 LUG 5MM 3/16" WHEEL SPACERS 5LUG THIN:eBay Motors (item 230398123252 end time Nov-20-09 12:52:10 PST)

20mm - BMW 20mm Hub Centric Wheel Spacers Adapters 5x120:eBay Motors (item 110455858682 end time Nov-16-09 16:14:08 PST)

I'm not sure about the hub diameter or spacing differences between the X3 and X5, so I'm not sure if these 20mm ones would work.

EDIT - It appears per this ad H&R TRAK WHEEL SPACER DR 20mm 5X120 E53 X5*00-06 01 02:eBay Motors (item 330377152492 end time Dec-13-09 22:40:30 PST) that the E53 and E83 share the same hub sizing, etc. Does this sound right?
