Got my 20" Genuine X6 Wheels on :) Better Pics now Pg.2

Post by g60renshaw » Wed Oct 20, 2010 9:09 am

So what do you think?
I think they really suit the car, not overly modern or bling.
Apologies for the state of the car, took the photo at the shopping centre at the weekend LOL.
10x20 275/40/20 on the front and 11x20 315/30/20 on the rear.
Fronts needed spigot rings as for some reason they are 76mm centre bore where the rears are 74, but they run lovely and I actually prefer the drive on them as the car feels more stable on the slightly lower profile tyres.

Very nice - as you say, not bling. Suit the car - more shots required though - you don't get off that easy! :thumbsup:

Glad you all think the same as me. Yes they are on the RFTs. I am going to retrofit the BMW RPA system, which doesn't need the sensors but works on the abs sensors picking up the wheel speed changes.

Looking good, they remind me of the old Puma wheels.

I'll have to make sure I don't park near you with my E71 then! Those wheels actually look better than the E53 OEM options. Very nice.
