Looks awesome, 215's are great! Anyone ever paint the extended wheel arches body color? I've been thinking about doing this, but, aside from the factory M ones, have not seen any X5's with the arches painted.

Congrats, I love the 215s. In my option the best looking rims on a X5 when you powder coat them. I was wondering how much did you by the for? Are they used? and how much did it cost you to powder coat them?

I bought them new from my BMW dealer as a full set (with tires) for $4200. The high gloss piano black finish is a factory look from BMW on the 215s. They're available in either Ferric grey or black.

Thanks for the fast reply. I actually didn't know that they were cheaper than 5K. Did you get a discount on it or is that the actual price?

It varies. They seem to be around $5000 and if you dig around you can find them closer to $4500. I negotiated the price with my dealer since I'm on my 3rd car and 2nd set of wheels...put a little pressure on them and that's the best they could come with....it seemed reasonable.
