anyone have these wheels?
 
I'm thinking about changing my wheels, even though I do like the OEM 20's on my 4.6is... and was wondering if anyone has these wheels with the machined spokes and gloss black lip on their X5. I think being reversed like that would look killa on a black X5. And they come to match the oem sizes, or step up to 22's... Let me know what you think.

I have seen many different aftermarket rims on the X5 and I am very partial to BMW's OE rims, that being said I think they would cool on the 4.6is but I would NOT go 22", I think anything bigger than 20 or 21 would look silly on the X. I am wondering if the 21" 214s made for the E70s would fit the bolt pattern on the 4.6is??

Yeah, I was actually considering these as an option, but think the grey would be not much better than what I have, and the solid black would be too much black on my truck... which is why I would consider the aftermarkets with the black spokes w/machined face and gloss black lip. I think that would be interestingly different. I don't like really deep lips on rims for many reasons, but a mild dish lip would look good if the spoke pattern was right for the vehicle. Too much or too little spoke coverage would kill it.

Have never seen a X with the first wheels , 21" would be nice on black X

Either of those BMW OE wheels on your 4.6is would look sick IMO
