F15 on the Blue Ridge Parkway

Had my X5 for about a month now and decided to take a trip up to North Carolina. The windy roads up to the Blue Ridge Parkway really solidified how great this car is in every aspect. Handled like a dream, took every off-road adventure with ease and at the end of the day was quiet and luxurious after a long hike.

Enjoy!

The app did not tell me that the pictures were too large, just an error in posting. Had to resize on the computer

Now that's more like it! Beautiful shots, buddy!

I love the colors of the last two pics. Very magazine worthy.

5th picture is my favorite, looks great.
These are the only wheels I would get with Space Gray, and of course with Luxury line, it looks really nice. So you bought the rims aftermarket? I am asking because you don't have the flared arches.

Not aftermarket, but after purchase yes. I got them from a forum member, style 451. Fender flares are next on my list!

Wow. 5th shot is really amazing for iPhone 6. I thought you used a fancy DSLR. Good job!

Yes, that's what I meant, I can tell those are not some knock-off ebay rims if that's what you thought..
Can you PM me how much you paid for them?

Honestly, it looks just fine the way they are, unless you ride in a gravel road very often, they should be safe since they don't stick out that much. Care to post a rear stance picture for us to see better?

Great shots mate and an incredible looking car. I've seen some amazing alloys on this site.

Recently just placed an order and I still can't believe how aggressive and smart the X5 can look at the same time.

Sorry to bump this up, but I have been looking at wheel upgrades for my luxury line X5 with no fender flares.

Did you ever buy the wheel arch extensions? How has the paint held up with the larger wheels? Any pics of the stance front and rear?

Thanks! Your car looks great (although I'm biased with a space grey luxury line).
