BBS wheel
 
Stole this picture from Nate (IND) off the M3forum.net board. I think they would look fantastic on a X5M if they came in a 21". (thanks for letting me steal your pictures, Nate)

I always feel like aftermarket wheels cheapen a car...don't ask me why. I like to stay with OEM look accessories.

Nate at IND is great though, front and rear painted reflectors and side marker for the X5M! $400.

I would like to see them on an X.

MFL101, I agree about some aftermarket wheels, but BBS rarely cheapens the look of a BMW, imo.

998M 04-29-2010 11:49 AM

I also agree with stock. I usually prefer a stock look. I had CSL wheels on my M3 and run 215s on the X5.

But I think HRE, BBS and some of the other less "flashy" wheels can be a great look.

I would like to see these in a gunmetal grey for my black X5. Would need a 21". From the BBS website the FI is only in a 19" for now.

A lot of talk about this wheel in m3post.com
BBS FI - Forged - M3 Forum 2011 2010 BMW M3 2009 BMW M3 BMW E90 M3 E92

don't think we will ever see it in a 21". Oh well. i wasn't lookin to spend the money anyways.

I think they'd look great on the X5M...my preference over stock would be Miro M6 replicas or Hartge Classics...p'coated.

The big Easy,
Awesome, you will love them. Please send pictures when they are on.

I am lowering mine in the next couple of weeks. The parts are in just waiting to find time.

God, I love the Style 215s in ferric on the carbon black. I am thinking about those on my new ride...how much did you pay? Dealer is quoting me $5,500 for wheels, tires, install....

LeMansX5 04-29-2010 09:25 PM

Those BBS wheels look like the ones on new M5.

I have seen replicas that are cheaper. I cannot comment on their quality. I purchased mine from eBay. I paid $2,000 for three (one rear and two fronts). Then had to purchase the other rear from dealer ($875 +100 for TPMS and $550 for tire from Tire Rack). All said and done $3,500. But it took a lot of looking and a little work.

MFL101 04-30-2010 11:24 AM

Don't want to go with Replicas on a $100k car...so not an open there. I think $5,400 installed is probably a fair deal. Hope I can sell them for around $2.5k in 2 years.

The Big Easy 04-30-2010 04:11 PM

That's about right, 5,000 to 6,000 - I shall now officially be washing dishes for the whole year!! They are at the shop - getting them fitted next week - so much looking forward to being able to clean the rims properly now and not get my fingers cut up with the current 20" setup.

Cheers,

The Big Easy 05-03-2010 10:51 AM

New 215 shoes are on and looking marvelous!
