Groan yes they are X6 fitment.

Pics, well here's a rough example.  They also come with BMW tyre bags which have to be bought from USA.

Price, well make a sensible offer as I am easily offended lol.

Got to make room for the aston tyres when I change those to winters for all of about 3 months before I get the new chariot......Image

If you are close enough by all means come and view. I also have a few trick badges and stuff which will probably be thrown in for good measure now I no longer have the need.

If they had fit the E70 I may have been interested, next time.

Do these and other x6 wheels fit on an e70 or e53 x5?

E53 yes with spigot rings - but only on the front as the rear bores are the same.  E70 no unless you machine the bores as the E70 hubs are too large.

Yes I agree they are probably worth as much as a 3 year old RS4 or 5 pounds 94, whichever is the greater (5.94)

All the more reason to tick it off the bucket list and swap out after 6 months then LOL.  That GTC V8S looks nice. The new Speed is a demon GT but every day chuckability is lower as is the mpg achieved and probably means it's an investment too far.  Easier to shift the 8 when I get bored as well, I would have thought.

Back to the wheels: They are 19"s same size tyres all round as this is the best winter set up from a tyre track driveability perspective.
PM me with your budget, I'm not citing anything openly, so only truly interested peeps will apply.  I have posted elsewhere about price paid and am looking to move on to an enthusiast not a re-seller looking for a cheap way to make a couple of ton by ebaying them (tsk tsk).
Yes they are runflats IIRC.  Certainly I did not have to switch off the TPMS nor did I ever get an error message after setting same so they must have been transmitting :-)
