Totally agree - mine have the Pirelli P zeros and IMO look the best with the more rounded side wall
Completely random but I have the same set up and want the diffuser, is it hard to keep the area behind the fin clean?

Awesome thread Piet. 599M's are my favorite here, but your 375's look really good too

How do you like it without fender flares? Do they stick out a lot?

I didnt mind them sticking out at all. I know some people do. I did notice more dirt does get thrown up onto the side of the car however. IMO they dont stick out a lot. Here are some rear shots of the car

Slow-motion sandblaster, just give it a little time.

Best source for OEM wheels?

Love this thread showing all the different styles of wheels. I currently have the 469m wheels, but I really want to change them out for the 375 style.

Other than checking Ebay and the this forum for individuals selling a set of 375's, what recommendations are there for buying the wheels online from a vendor like GetMyBMWparts or from a dealership? Can you purchase only the wheels from BMW? I only see wheel and tire packages on the shopBWMUSA site?

Thanks for the input.

You can use the email feature on BMWpartspros.com to order just oem wheels. Britney will take care of you and they have really good pricing (relatively speaking).

375's vs. 599m, it's a tough call. They both look great! You just don't see as many X5s with 375 style wheels. Decisions, decisions, what to do???

I say Style 375 all the way... The 599s are probably the most boring wheels I've had on my X5.

P1et, I am bumping this for two reasons;
1) it needs to be updated, some of your OP pics aren’t loading
2) it needs to be at the top
