Re: what are the best looking rims for the x5

it depends on how much you wanna spend. 4.6is wheels are around $4k.. which is quite expensive. Also, it depends if you looking for "bling-bling" rims like (X5) pointed out or if you're looking for something more sporty, like hartage 22"s or something.

Re: what are the best looking rims for the x5

I love the 4.4i wheels with the sport package. Mine is the 4.4i with all the packages (Sport, Premium, Cold Weather, etc) and the wheels look great. I like them as much as the 4.6 wheels. I am not sure about pricing though.

According to the dealer guys... the worst thing you could do to your 3.0 is putting one of those heavy ass 4.6is wheels.
Even 18" wheels you got(if you have SP) is heavy enough alredy. Get some lighter racing wheels for better performance. You could get somthing like 19" Hamman HM2s for $3000 w/tire now days. Hartge classic looks great too. But, 22" is little too extream for my taste...
