Agree, really nice looking x3. Those wheels really make the X5, I've seen them on old X5's and they look great there too. Good choice, don't fiddle with your car, they look great as is.

Leave the them silver. What are the specs? Do they stick out past the fender? I am having a hard time finding a set that I like. I'm leaning toward Beyern Mesh, but I want 9.5" at a ll four corners because I want 3" lips (I am going for a certain look that has been in my head since the X3 came out). Help us out with some more pics, please.

Those rims really make your x3 look great.

Can you post some more shots of them from different angles?
Thx!!!

What's the offset? Wanting to put a larger set on mine as well, looking at running some LM reps, found some that are 20x10 et35 rear and 20x8.5 et37. The shop told me that they won't work with out spacers and doesn't recommend it because it doesn't clear the calibers, any thoughts? Here's the link on eBay http://bit.ly/Pw37O3

Do you have more pics of the car with those wheels? Font, back, 3/4s?

I think the combo is fantastic, but are you running oversized tyres on this car which throws off the speedo?
