Those wheels make the aero kit look so much better!

Seeing them on an E53 made me put in an offer on them!

They're in my back yard (so to speak) if anyone is thinking of pulling the trigger could have a look for ya!
Me I have to pass, but they do look cool!

This is the X for those wheels........
You know, they actually wouldn't look that bad with the silver & aero kit. IMO The quad-five spoke design doesn't really fit the bodylines on the X though....just look off.

I'm guessing these wheels are gonna be forged...so they shouldn't be much heavier than a set of 20" reps. It'd Be interesting to know where they stood in terms of weight though!

Nice and not common too!

TiAgX5, for a variety of reasons I too want to stay with the staggered 19's for my 3.0. What lightweight wheels did you get? Looking fir something different from my current style 63's.

I got a used set of Envy wheels with almost new tires off e-bay about 3 yrs ago.

Tiag I'd like to see those wheels on your X! Hope you offered like 2k lol.

After seeing the blue X from Europe I guess they could work. I think it needs slight lowering, iS kit, and running boards to pull the look off.

I absolutely think the aero kit is hideous and doesn't ever look good on an X, adding 3500 dollar wheels wouldn't help it IMO.

That's why those wheels don't look that bad with an aero kit....all the hideousness works together! LOL.
