(D) would look HOT on your black X5 but I in 20". 19's would look great too but 20's would be perfect.

I pick C! Even though I prefer 20's. But on the styling end C is the better one here. Else D may be another hot pick too! Just a bit too small!
How come you not interested in the chrome-OEMs on eBay?

No help here, as I Like's 'Em All!
The 22" sizes may be a bit over the top, but that's jes'me.

I'm a black wheel fan, (though I have no toys w/black wheels.)

The rivet deal on 3 of the 4, may not be fun to keep clean, however. And, then there's winter in ChiTown! GL,md

Personally, most of 5-spoke rims have been always looking right for me, this style has not too many and not too little spokes. The set c) blk 5 spoke 22" also has a nice combination of black and chrome, the spokes are not too wide and not too narrow. I love cool stuff on the conservative level. My vote definitely goes for "c"!

Make sure to post pictures with selected rims installed!

Hartge Replicas in 19" would look hot.

I like the 19s (d). Isn't the design close to the E60 M5 style?

Do you have prices for the four styles?

Do any of them require spacers to fit the X5?
