Nice 4.6! I love my 4.8. Btw, I was able to find some perfect oem wheels with nearly new Toyo STIIs locally for $1700. They arent style 87s though. Heres a pic of em.

...........I dont think BMW fits Chromes Rims, It's a sports car/SAV..they are meant to be aggressive..i'll stick to black Rims or original rims in my opinion.......Just Saying..

Freak, thanks for that.

Mikeinmn, you must be local. Maybe we could get a caravan of 4.6/4.8s and do a cruise.

I'm torn on the chrome, I doubt I will move on them as I don't have an immediate need. If I bought every set of wheels I wanted... Well I'd be broke. I ended up with 4 sets for my M3 and it was a waste of $ and space.

Here is a silver X on chrome 87s...

Yup, I'm local. Saw a black 4.8 in Loretto yesterday. Not many out there!

Congratulations!

Have a 2002 x5 4.6 that I have owned since new. Longest I have ever kept a vehicle, thinking of selling it but still in love with it.

Did another 300 miles this past weekend driving to Emily, MN. Stunning Minnesota roads, managed to do a couple of runs too. 0-120 and back to zero happened quickly and purposefully. The sound from the V8 and Dinan exhaust are addicting, and smashing the brake pedal with the massive Brembos turned out to be a face melting experience. The truck cruises very very well. As a road trip car, I can't think of any better. Passing is painless, no downshift necessary. Torque for days, or let it downshift and enjoy muscle car-esque tones and power from a truck that feels as luxurious as any luxury car anywhere near this price point. Bottom line: this truck does everything well.
