I love your X5. I was pretty set on getting white for my F15 order next year but I think I'll have to go with Space grey again. This would make it my 3rd car in a row in this color
I am glad that there are several oem plus wheel sizes for the F15 that looks amazing. No need to spend 10K on aftermarket wheels that probably aren't as strong. Any reason why you guys don't go with a wider tire in the back? Looking at everyone with 21 wheels the tires in the back could be beefier/wider where as now they look almost rounded with semi stretch. Just my personal preference i guess. I love seeing X5's with massive wide tires from the rear. Alan

Wider? The rear tire is 325's already...isn't that wide enough? LOL! Lamborghinis come with 335 sized tires and those are WIDDDEEEE!
I almost went with white but after hearing about how BMW has several shades of alpine white and seeing folks with mismatched body panels, I'm very glad I went with Space Grey. It's my first time getting this color and I love how it turned out! |

++1 on Space Grey - My first time with this color too. For me it's a compromise color between Silver and black. |

@atomic80, it looks really good! It looks like you got the splitters to match your paint? I was honestly thinking it should be left alone, but it definitely looks much nicer with the matching color. The open air grille is also much much better - symmetry FTW!

His camera skills are def part of it, but I also believe it has to do with his Opticoat finish.

Yeah, that's what it seems to do. I'm debating between this and the 9H Ceramic Coat (a full body coat that costs around $1500 US - similar price). Armen383 did the ceramic (it's like 6 layers - looks really nice and has a hydrophobic layer).

Hi atomic80,
Was the footrest an easy install? My dealer tells me it will not fit my car (30d with M package). Thanks, Ivan Quote:
