Upgrade!! my X5 3.0si. Enjoy the Pics^_^

Hi guys~Finnaly i upgrade my X5 3.0~~~

Nice! In regards to fender flares, I get mixed reviews on that one too. Some say it looks nicer with and without, it is personal preference, but it looks nice the way it is. Are the wheels protruding in the front or the rear? If they are you may have to opt for the fender flares.

Thanks.

^ same question about the rims... how much and where from? I'm debating whether to do the same but never drive it in the snow (have another SUV already) because I don't want to have to change out tires every winter.

BTW, it does look like the rears protrude out a bit.

$3k for 214 tires+wheels is not too bad.

How much do you guys suppose nearly new style 212 19" tires+wheels would sell for?
