Should I trade my style 87's for style 215's??????

I had my 87's for sale on Craigslist and someone asked if I wanna trade for 215's and he said he would even add $100 on top. my set is chrome that I don't like, and his set is ferric gray and both sets are replicas. I was gonna dip my 87's anthracite but which would look better on a black x5

Ill go for the 215s i almost got those! i love them and not many e53s have them around here. Even though they are reps, and probably heavier i think they look cool anbd will hold up of course if you dont try hitting curbs

I'm leaning towards the 215 also only because they are a newer style

87s just look proper on an E53. Who cares if yours are replicas, why don't you just powdercoat them NOT chrome, would look so much better.


215's belong on an E70 in my opinion, the facelift E53's can rock them but pre-facelift doesn't really look right in my opinion.

I am partial to the 87s but I would take the set with the better tires!

I think 87's are one of the nicest stock rims BMW created and just "fit" on the e53's
