Those Mayas are without a doubt one of the nicest aftermarket wheels I've seen on an X5. I actually prefer the Maya center caps. My philosophy is Bmw center caps go on BMW rims while if you have nice aftrmrkt rims then use their own caps. Agree with Ricky the X needs to be lowered. But still looks great.

even tho the guy at autoshop never told me what tires he was gonna put (i was a newb back then) 315/35/20-rear and 275/40/20-front seems right...

tire size is same as the original ones...

edit: how low should i drop it? thx

IMO, drop it as low as you can go as long as handling is improved.

SO you did fit 315 in the rear. Thanks!
