That looks like one mean car now!

By "mean", I'm meaning "impressive", "you'd better get out of my way", etc.

Never been completely sold on the black wheels but they do work well with a black car and the painted bumpers of the M package. Not too sure if the fairer sex would be that keen on this look though

I agree with Brian, that is one mean looking X. Congrats

Hey, I shoulda guessed that that would happen.

I comment on the fairer sex probably not liking it so much and then our two primary representatives chime in that they do like it

LOL I've been a fan of black rims since I saw them on Justin's X5 at the Tri-State Meet earlier this year.

it looks nice, but I bet it looks even better in person.

BTW, those tires look somewhat worn already, about how many miles on them?

I said the X looks mean. The black wouldn't be my choice, but they do work. You can't win Brian
