Any ideas on 22" wheel upgrade

Well I upraded my 3.0 to the Y-Spoke 20" wheels and my ADHD has kicked in and I want another upgrade. I'm looking into 22" wheels but can't find something I like that is affordable. The AC Schnitzer are nice but are like 10k+ !!! I have a space grey, all bumpers/fender flares/aero kit painted to match. I was hoping you guys would know of some good options out there that would fit the X5 and wouldn't break the bank! Thanks...

WOW nice find! Thanks for the pics too!! I'm strongly considering these now! I dont like that they're the old style though. I wish they made 22" style 128. That would be HOT.

Well, Ok, they are E53 style..but close your eyes, think about the style of wheel, think about your car..... think about how you want it to look (i think a nice car with OEM/OEM replica stuff... and then added tricks here and their..ie aero kit, 21s or say a nice tint) are more than enough...

why anyone would make their x5 look cheap... just baffles me

these wheels, tick every box for me....and as they are 22...sitting under a E70 would look very, very HOT my friend...

(ps - these pics aren't my car btw in case you thought)

Those 4.8is rims would look divine on an E70, especially with your kit.

As long as you're doing all these upgrades, get the 4.8i's titanium grille. It makes a big difference, for not that much money.

Tire availability also has to be a consideration. If you go with a staggered setup, the only 21" tires that are available right now are the same runflats that BMW uses. Even through TireRack, they are very very expensive.
