Hi,
I have an X5 and am getting bored of the wheels I have on there. They are 19' 5 spoke BMW wheels.
Any ideas what I could go for? Looking to go bigger and thinking about some Kahns as that's the only manufacturer I know when it comes to big wheels.
Thanks.

if i was forced against my will to own a X5, i'd have the ones in the top pic.
the middle ones are mundane and the alpinas are horrific!

Don't do it BIGJO, few things shout council more than a khanned up X5 !
PS Bigger rims and lower profile tyres will also do the ride and steering no favours, drive one with big rims first before spending your money.

Aww don't worry Simon...don't be sad you peasant. I know you don't have a pot to p!ss in but maybe one day you'll be able to own one. I've owned mine for nearly two years (black Sport 2006 plate) just getting bored of the wheels.Simon13 wrote:its a shame they're cheap enough now for scum like you to own one
Anyway guys, I think I'll keep to the 19's...thanks for the advice guys especially Pacerpete
Blitz its all about the wheels on the top pic...they're very similar to mine.

Can you post a pic of your car? I know someone with a basic 3.0i with standard wheels who would buy your 19's.BIGJO wrote:Hi,
