i think im about to pull the trigger on a set of 23's with conti tires for my x5. just wondering how much trouble im asking for. i know the ride will suffer some, but im ok with that for the improved look. what im not ok with is bending or cracking rims often. ive had low pro tires on pretty much every car, but never this low. my tahoe had 295/35/24s on it with tis wheels, which were cast and weighed a ton. it was also lowered with pedders springs so it handled awesome. never a problem and i drove it pretty aggresive. the x5 wheels im considering are forged monoblock, so im assuming they are pretty strong and relatively light... anyone currently riding on this tire size that can give me some feedback? tia
