I'm not really loving any of wheel choices. Do you mean these, Matt? I need to find out from the dealer what comes standard.

Yeah, that's it and standard on the 5.0i. I don't think it looks bad, but I'Ll admit that the X6 is one of a few BMW models that's a bit short on imagination for wheel designs. Maybe they used it all up creating the exterior.

If you want a quick visualiser just click on the wheel designs: BMW X6 : Außenausstattung

If you want to be very, very special, the Individual wheels are 19" as well, style 265. Might be pricey.

Thanks Matt. I'm waiting to hear back which 19" wheel comes standard with the sports package. Unless I hate them, I'll keep them. I could live with the 258s or the 232s.

EDIT: I guess I'll just have to wait and see. Dealer said they don't have the info yet on which wheels will be standard. Maybe they'll have a new style....

I'd say get the smaller cheaper base rims for winters, and by the time spring comes around again you may be itchin for some 21" 215's or 275's anyways.

I like the X6, sorta...esp. in certain colors, but I am surprised the
wheel offerings are so hmmmm, unless one goes to 20s.
But, I wanna ride in L's big HP car one of these months!

I'm really trying not to get caught up in the change out the wheels each season deal. I'll keep whatever 19s come standard unless I really hate them. The 258s aren't bad I guess, but like mD said, I'm surprised the choices are so
