These wheels won't fit the E70 X5. The center bore size on the E70 is smaller than the E53. Sucks! I found some great deals on E53 X5 wheels, but they won't work. On the other hand, if you have an E53 and want the newer, E70 wheels, you can slap on some hub rings and be all set. Sucks!
That sucks buddy. How's the new X5? monster?

It's in production. I custom ordered it right before the new year. I'm tracking it on BMW Owner's Circle. It's only on stage 2 (Production Line). I should have it mid-Feb. The funny part is, I've already ordered a boat load of stuff for it. Some of it's being painted as we speak and other stuff is sitting in my garage in boxes, waiting for the car to arrive. I'm pretty stoked, but my wife is even more excited. This is technically her car and will be her car. As it stands right now, she takes the M to work each day and I take my Durango to the train station each day, since I work in Manhattan. She doesn't like the M. For one, she hates how loud it is. And two, she gets stopped ALL the time at lights and at Starbucks by men asking her about the car. She's so sick of it. The funniest part is that she recently told me that she gets that feeling that people are "staring at her" when she's at a light. Sure enough, she looks over and some dude or dudes are salivating over the car, giving her the thumbs up. She doesn't know how to respond and just keeps driving. Hahahahaha! So with that, she just wants a normal car, hence the reason we got her the X5. Little does she know, her new X5 is about to get modded out, before it even arrives! Hahahahaha!

That's hilarious. and awesome at the same time. gosh I wish I can get an M5. Even if I could afford the car, I think the insurance kills me. Oh wellz.

I'll just live through you and your car.
