These are the ferric grey wheels from the X6. I liked them because they match my mirrors too. Very wide...285 in the front and 325 in the back.

Edit: Sorry, pics didn't attach earlier. Might actually be too wide for me...but let me know what you think:

Those are some serious meats! Looks perfectly flushed up. I say it's a winner.

Thanks! They stick out a bit further than I like out front, but I'm not sure how much I can move it in with good clearance. Very flush in the back though, yes.

Did you need spacers to make this work?
How is the ride quality?
Speedometer issues?

Hi DBU

I needed spacers up front to make it work, as well as hubcentric rings because the bore size on the X6 is slightly larger. The only spacer I had on have was a 12mm set; I think smaller would work but I don't have any to try right now. I might give 8mm a try.

No speedometer issues. I came from 20s, so the ride difference isn't big to me. But I'm used to a firm ride and it might be a bigger jump in firmness if you're on 18s or 19s. Grip is CRAZY though - It's been rainy the past few days and the car feels unbelievably planted

Here is a better picture of how spaced out the fronts are right now. Planning to try a smaller spacer soon.
