This is a rep but at least you can buy one wheel, or have them see if they can find a remanufactured OE wheel?

New 20" 20x10 5 Rear Alloy Wheel for 2004 2005 2006 BMW X5 | eBay

Or here is an OE wheel:

59487 BMW x5 20" Factory OE Alloy Rear Wheel Rim | eBay

BMW x5 20" 2004 2005 2006 Wheel Rim Rear 59487 | eBay

Thanks man, I may just break down and buy a new rear 87 wheel. If they're still for sale, heh

I'm showing discounted cost of a NEW OE wheel at $560, so the links I showed you're saving about $200, its gonna be a spare one anyway isn't it? Or are you looking for one for one of your corners?

Just want a ready full size spare for long road trips. The 4 rears I have now are in great shape. Pretty big on it matching lol. It just wouldn't feel right ya know?

Buyers be aware:
The new OE wheels are now coming out of Poland, the Factory installed wheels are from Mexico (applications 2004,5,6 x5 4.8is) No idea on other applications.
Make sure if you purchase wheels online, that you have a Return policy if what you receive does not meet your expectations.

New note: all four corners with a space saver. Now that would be like driving on ice all year around !
