Wheel Opinions - Beyern Antler RF (Black) Wheels 22" x 11"
Hey all,
Hoping to get some opinions on these wheels before I pull the trigger. The vehicle pictured with these wheels is identical to mine. I have been having a tough time deciding on wheels for this X5. The wheel itself I really like, but I am unsure if spoke wheels like this work with the X. I tend to lean towards thicker spoke styles for SUV's.

Thin spokes work very well imho. I like those rims, but I also like these ones from our forum member: https://f15.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh...8&postcount=61
On the other hand thick spokes work good too. It's so hard to nail just right combo - often color of rims and car can make or brake final result too. I can't comment and advise since I know from experience that my taste is not ideal. i tend to like something for the first few days/weeks and then I start to slowly see that I was a bit wrong lol. |

^ yes fender flairs will make car look better (no matter the wheels). In your case you can probably get away with black (not painted) fender flairs. There's a thread about aftermarket flairs that are very good fitment (close to oem) for less price.

Thanks for the comments! Going to look into the flares, but might add that later.
I am still chasing the look I used to have on my E53, I really miss those wheels. 22" Style 168 replicas. I thought they looked amazing.
