BMW enthusiast owned...
We acquired this X3 M40i before the X3M was announced. All the automotive journalist were raving about the X3 M40i when it launched and it absolutely lives up to the hype. In fact, I test drove an X3M when one became available last fall and I honestly couldn't tell THAT much of a difference between it and my M40i: The M40i is THAT good! Did I mention that it is fast? (It's very fast!)

My wife has told me numerous times that this X3 is her favorite vehicle she has ever owned, which is quite the statement because we have owned a previous generation X3, a Lexus RX350, a Mercedes SL500, an M4 convertible and an X5M before we acquired the X3 M40i! She LOVES it! My wife travels for work and she says that this X3 M40i puts a smile on her face every time she gets behind the wheel, which makes an otherwise tiring day enjoyable.

I can't say enough positive things about this vehicle. Its beautiful! TWO SETS OF WHEELS!!! The vehicle currently wears a set of 21" TSW Bathurst wheels finished in Gloss Gunmetal with Michelin Pilot Sports that are more flush with the fenders and give the vehicle a more aggressive X3M-like stance! The darker finish on the wheels complement the rear bumper diffuser trim perfectly. The added width and lower offsets of the TSWs make the M40i feel even more planted in a turn with less body roll. The original 18" BMW M wheels with almost new tread will be included....

Garage kept, non-smoker, no pets and accident free! All maintenance completed at BMW dealership. Options include Apple Car Play, Wireless charging, Panoramic Moonroof, Gesture Control, Premium Package, Full LED Headlights, Heated Seats, M Adaptive Suspension and a 355hp In-line turbocharged 6 cylinder Engine.

So why are we ready to let it go? My wife's job situation has changed and we no longer need the added expense of an additional vehicle. If things should change, I bet we will be getting another M40i! The X3M is super nice, but honestly isn't worth the premium when you compare them side to side.

Great looking car... wheels make it look phenomenal. I am considering getting X3m for my father as he got into autocross.
Would you mind me asking what width and offset are the wheels? Also what tire size you are using? I checked on TSW site and for front wheels there is only one option but for the rears there are 3-4 different width an offset.
Thank you much
