Looks good! I have a silver X5 and was wondering how it would look to paint some 214's silver. What do you guys think? How would that work? Would they powder coat them silver then paint them?

Got them put on today I use a shop in Boca Raton, FL called Lion Motoring they always do a great job, and do exotics all over the world..I put the Bridgestone Dueler H/P's on I picked them up pretty cheap, and I was pretty happy with them on my stock wheels I just didn't get the run flat version.

I just snapped one pic with my camera phone, and once I get the doors painted on Friday I'll take some better shots with my D90. After that's completed I'm going switch out my magnaflow tips with a little surprise (still quad tips, but in black), and after I debaged most of the car I'm gonna have the X5 logo painted black.

As far as first impressions I'm extremely happy I purchased the wheels from "expresswheel" on ebay 20x9.5(et35) fronts, 20x10.5(et40) rears, got the tires from tirerack through lion motoring 275/40 fronts 315/35 rears (bridgestone duelers) tires are a bit noisy, but so were the stocks. However you can't beat the treadwear. I then had them powdercoated from Lion in one day..

Looks great. Wish I could get away with those tints up here. Cops would have my ass in a week.
