Not to knock on the car, but stating this to myself. Can anyone explain why I hate black wheels? I mean they look great off the cars, but once on the car, I can't stand it. Anyone else.

Otherwise the car is dope. Modded to all hell, and nicelly too.

They are actually a really dark gray, in the right light they are stunning. I've always loved black wheels, but I know they aren't for everyone. I like looking a little different than all of the soccer-Mom X5s though.

Is that snow tread you have on those wheels? Looks like Pirelli Scorpion Ice and Snows

Good eye, they are Pirelli Ice and Snows. They have about 20% tread left so I will throw the Toyos on when these die.

I would love to have a dedicated winter setup but I need 20" to fit my brakes. The cost of another set of 87s and tires makes me think that going with an all-season type tire would be the better option.

Haha I didn't even think of that. If you are looking for AS I'd go with conti Dws wrapped around those suckers. They saved my life twice since I have had them on
