Your wheels have a nice lip for an X model. But the overall look is kind of cheap, so go for VMR's.
Looks like the spokes were made of plastics ...

I can't bare to look at those rims anymore. Maybe you can put some nice hubcaps over them. Just kidding. I would try to sell them on ebay. Somebody has to like them. I initially thought they were okay, but now not so great. too busy with the bolts and the starfish does not go along with the bolts. Are those really BMW rims?

Yea that wheel is not horrible but something about them dont seem to go with the car. dont be afraid to go staggered. I did it with 20's on mine. In fact I am selling my wheels because hopefully I will have either a 750Li or an M5 And I am gonna want bigger wheels if i get the 7

I think the wheels would go very nicely on an M5 or a 750 !! Do you want to buy them? ...kidding. Thanks everyone for the input. The starfish wheels are gone! Seriously, if anyone thinks they would be good thrasher wheels, i'll give you a great deal.
