24" rims?
 
I was thinking of sticking some 24's on my x5 with very low profile tires but everyone keeps telling me not to do it as it will reuin the ride and make the road feel bumpy etc...

How bad will it get? i think 24's will look the dogz bollo*ks but is it worth it?

I wouldn't try it, you're asking for too much trouble. Plus, it'll look funny b/c the tires (if you can find any that fit) will look like rubber bands on those huge rims. Most people here will say that 20s are the best handling/looking. Some have 22s and they look fine, but unless you live in the suburbs with well paved roads, city driving will be hazardous to the X's health.

24s on a X5 are too big and actually look stupid in my opinion. go with 22

If the roads where you drive are smooth like silk, then go for it. Otherwise you will be dealing with harsh ride, bent rims, etc.

not sure if they will fit, you would have to go with a 25 series tire.

Alpine put a custom 26 or 28 inch rim on their mod x5

20s already feel kinda bumpy ... you could go for 22's but if u want 24's, dont go for something too blingy...
bimmers always tend to look good with 5 spoke or mesh wheels (dpes my friend :) )
