ebay is your best bet. You will find solid deals and that is where most of us get the replicas anyway.

Thank you very much for the info. I appreciate it..

Could anyone please share a specific dealer on ebay which would ship 20' rims/tires to the DC area? I have heard good and bad stories of different dealers......

I was also wondering if anyone could share pics of their 20' or 21'? I have seen the staggered style 87's with the 315s on the rear tire which looks fantastic!!!

Thanks

I purchased a set off of ebay from AFS wheels. They are located in Cal. but will ship to anywhere in the US. I have been very happy with my new rims and tires. I purchased them as a set pre-mounted and balanced. Here is a link to a current auction they have for a set just like the ones I purchased but with goodyear tires. I had toyo tires. Same price as these. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/AFS-B...mZ230071737195

Here is the best deal I have seen on Style #87

I am planning to buy replica 87s from AFS on E bay but I noticed that it says it fits 2000-2004 X5 models. I have a 05 X5 and not sure if it will fit. I thought all year X5s would fit. Also I found something interesting on BavAuto while looking for lug stud wheel locks, I put in my info which is 05 X5 4.4 before choosing a product. I came across lug stud wheel locks and noticed it says it would only fit the X5 thru 4/2005 production. http://www.bavauto.com/shop.asp Does this have anything do would the AFS replica fitment on my 05?? Thanks.

I noticed the same thing when I bought mine, I called and confirmed that they would work. I also have an 05 X5 and they work just fine. They need to update their listing.

After looking though my notes on why they only list 2000-2004 models they said that they had not done a "fitness test" on anything past 2004. They were confident that they would fit but they just had not actually done the test. There are others on X5 World that have purchased tires and packages from them with no problems. This is the exact same package that I purchased from them that is a current listing as of 2/20/2007 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/AFS-B...mZ230093569382

The only difference is that shipping has gone up $13 since October.
