You can save up to $1k if you do the replicas and get tires from tirerack. I've seen as low as $800 for the 214 rims so it only comes out to be about $2k total. Even better when you sell original 19s w/ tires for about $1700 total. But who knows the quality of those replica rims over time. I think some only warranty the structural integrity and not anything like corrosion, etc.

$5k for the style 214s? I know the 21" style 128s are in that range but don't think so for the 214s.

http://www.xoutpost.com/x5-e70-forum/...oy-pics-_.html is the price I'm going by... Morristown BMW can give you a comparable price... ~$3600 but a bit cheaper if you get only the rims from them and the tires from tirerack. http://www.xoutpost.com/accessories-f...?highlight=214
