2011 Black Sapphire 35d (UPDATED)

[GladiatorOwner]

I bought the wheels from another poster who was selling here. They are 20" OEM 300Ms 275 front and 315 back. The rear hub holes had to be bored out from 72.5 mm to 74.1 mm to fit the X5 since the wheels themselves fit an X6M. The actual look is similar to the 20" 214s. As in, they stick out a hair past the fender without flares and however it will definitely look more sporty with the flares and is highly recommended by most posters here. I also have 20mm H&R spacers on the rear which push the wheels out abit.

Ask daripper where he purchased his rep. wheels. The rep. wheels will not need any boring out work (they are made to fit the X5) and seem to be a good way to go. He can also update you on the wear and tear of his reps. since he has had them now for a few months.

Yup...thats the place. As for wear and tear on the rep wheels, still holding strong. No issues and I put about 3000 miles on them so far.

Here are some pics of the X5 with matte black 214 20" rims with Continental DWS tires.

I think I'm done with mods for now unless someone has any ideas.

Looks great PR... Your setup is staggered right? Just curious do you have 315/30/20 on the rear? Looks like it's less wide for some reason....

Definitely one last thing to do - get painted reflectors! Be careful though, the eBay ones won't fit 2011

They are staggered. The rears are 315/35/20, but I agree they don't stick out as far as I thought they would. I'm thinking about getting rear spacers. Any recommendations on where to get them or what size?

Our sponsor ECS tuning sells spacers. They posted some thread about spacers not too long ago. Search vendor forum

Wow! Cool! These are the wheels I sold to you...looks very nice on the X5. How much did it cost you to get the hub bores done?

hey Jai,

$60 for the 2 rears over in your neck of the woods. Turns out that H&R now has spacers that converts the wheel fit without boring them out. Woulda saved some effort AND CASH but overall, it came out nicely!

Wheres your X6??? or did you change your mind .........
