No problems or issues at all mate, I am more than happy with my choice to put 21's on my X5.

Would be interested to know if you notice and more muck and debris on the sides of the car with the larger wheels fitted

Will let you know mate as soon as I have clocked up a couple of miles.

All fitted and now one Very Happy X5 driver

I will get the after pics up as soon as I get 5 minutes to fit them mate.

Cheers mate, hoping to put these on my X5 tomorrow, think they are going to be a nightmare to clean but look great on your X5.

Will put up pics when fitted and think I will be giving the arch extenders a miss.

A picture of them fitted on my x5, with the same wheels as you are looking at. Have noticed with the 21" wheels a lot of muck and tar etc gets thrown up on the sills and bottom of the doors, so looking at if its possible to fit mud flats, alternatively may look at doing the opposite to you and move ...

I was hoping someone had actually installed these and could have uploaded a picture but any info you can find out ...

Hi, I thought the same but the BMW sales assistant wouldn't sell the wheels without them.

Just realised I have posted in the wrong section, could a MOD please move this topic to the X5 F15 section.

Thanks.

And a quick pic of my new 40D
