Looks great!! Glad you didn't go with black wheels. In my opinion they are over played. Satin silver looks great and gives the car some good contrast.
Fantastic build.

Usually not a fan of red on the SUV, but damn if this doesn't look good. I haven't seen many 22s on this vehicle. I'll preface this statement admitting I'm a fan of large rims on any sports car. With the X3, I think the 22 is too much; 20 is not enough. I like a 21 on this chassis. That's just me...

Honestly not much of a difference from the 21s. Still feels and rides the same IMO. Driven it a bit more actually because of less people on road haha but with people slowly creeping back I may drive less. Boring to drive when you get stuck behind a 85 year old with nowhere to go 😂😂😂

Honestly I was keen on sticking with the 21s I truthfully didn't wanna go 22s but while at vossen in Miami my buddy said the 21s in the style I liked would've taken an extra 6 weeks or so I said screw it. Glad I did to because right after these wheels got put
On everything started getting shut down a few weeks later.

Beautiful vehicle I really like where BMW went with this X3M. For a first iteration it's great! The side profile shows how much it's grown. It reminds me of my E70 X5M in size. That's not a bad thing at all.

How about the springs? I'm on the fence about getting an X3M or waiting for G8x M3/M4 and was wondering if these SUV M cars have a good amt of suspension travel such that lowering them as much as yours still preserves a good amt of suspension travel and ride quality.

Yes, there are those special MSS Urban springs that allow you to drop the car by one inch (or more) and simultaneously improve the ride quality. Whole bunch of guys here got those springs.

MSS are great and have been so far awesome. Some have HR which you can't go wrong, I had those previously on my x3m40i and they were pretty solid. But if I had to choose I'd prolly go with MSS solely because of the adjustment you can make and the ride compared to my m40i does seem a bit smoother

Nice find. It certainly does. Damn, did they shut down town for this commercial? Your car does look incredibly good(yes, even with these 22s). Actually, this video makes me rethink the concept of 22s on our chassis. Bravo!

P. S. That ceramic coat is sickly reflective......
