My old e53 Rims on my e70 plus all mods thoughts!

I spent a lot of time doing all the mods myself thanks to the advice from the members on this website So I have done Aero kit, Fender flares, Kidney Grills, Exhaust tips, Hid Bulbs (H8,H11) and finally my Acschnitzer 22" rims which have been collecting dust for 2yrs. I think they look better on my e70 than my old e53. Plus my ride is surprisingly a lot better than stock 18rf tires. Next on the agenda is illuminated door sills, M roof rack,and some style 214 replicas with vreidstien tires for winter. I would love any personal opinions on the replicas how do they ride any wobble. I can do over 80 no prob with my 22s.
Thanks

Nice! AC's look good.

Just curious wha did you mean by " I can do over 80 no prob with my 22s"? Over 80 mph with no wobble?

agreed, definitely need some rear spacers. How is the X running without those monster rear tires? Or do you have them on there, can't really tell from the pictures.

Overall looks pretty damn sweet. Throw on the old 20's for winter

Thanks for the comments I totally agree with the rear spacers just don't know which ones to get please feel free to leave me any suggestions. Secondly what i meant by " I can do over 80 " is that I have heard Replica rims have a tendency to wobble or jitter at a certain speeds. Now i don't know whether that is from improper balancing but i would appreciate anyone comments who have replicas.
