I am desperately looking for a set of 128 reps like Dave pictured above. Does anyone know where to get a set?
Thanks!

Thanks!
You have an X model and Dave has the RWD version, which has different offsets. Those reps will unforetunately not fit on your car, i.e. they will stick out too much. That's why I suggested the X3's 128s, as the X3 has similar offsets to your 5er X model. The rims are not as concave, due to the higher ET value, but they still look good IMHO. (You can find pictures in this Post, a few pages back I believe.)

Here's my '09 535xit with the X3's 128 staggered wheels (and spacers) on with KW V3 coilovers. Not the best shots and not as concave but I think they've worked out well.

Couldn't agree more! I think they look great and that drop is spot on

Thanks guys. If I recall correctly xBMWx's old ride got me salivating about this setup with those wheels. Not as concave as the rear wheel drive version but I am still very happy.

As far as the spacers go, I believe I used 12.5 mm spacers up front and 15mm in the rear but I think TLO03 knows for certain- TLO03 is that right? If not I can dig around and find out for sure.
