The center caps from my 369M´s where a little bit to small.
Ordered some BMW centre caps from eBay. Probably not original BMW, but they do the job.

Fantastic pictures Exodyne. You have really done a terrific job with the car and the camera.

I have a similar X3, Vermillion Red 3.0D. I have the R19 Msport rims with Nokian Hakkapelitta for winter tires and they are really good. Not satisfied with the summer tires though, Pirelli Pzero, also on R19, they are just too hard for my taste. I have recently discussed with my dealer changing them to something else. Do you have any recommendation for summer tires?

I´ve got the same experience as you. I´m very satisfied with the Nokian Hakkapeliitta R (R18), not so satisfied with the Pirelli Pzero (R19).
Haven´t tried any other summer tiers on my X3. Will use the Pzero one more season before I change.

Yup. Those non-stock center caps were the first thing I noticed.
