HRE P101 22" installed on my X6 BMW

Hello all. Havent posted on here for some time due to work being busy, but wanted to share my pics of the new shoes..

After waiting for HRE to let me know the P1 series wheels were 'beefed up' and now load rated to work on SUV i decided to be one of the first (I'm led to believe) with HRE P101 in the brushed and dark tinted finish. Ive used 295/30r22 and 335/25r22 Continental Contact Sport 5p. Wheels are 10x22 F with 12x22 rear.

At first it took a little time to get use to how the acceleration and braking had improved as they are so so light. Dont think I can go back to the runflat option and tyres are around the same cost too.

Now just need to change the front bumper and get rid of the Eibach springs I had installed and change them to H&R who offer a slightly lower ride height.

Thanks all. Yh there were a little more than your average wheel but for me I know they are quality. The finish, weight and fitment is perfect. Will post more pictures once the car has the new suspension.

Thanks guys, Had the car lowered again and changed out the Eibach springs and replaced with lower H&R springs with 40mm and 30mm drop. Very quickly changed. I took these pictures while the car was used at the BMW festival UK motorshow just gone. Its dropped a little more now, ride quality is still good but on bumpy road a little bouncy, but not uncomfortable...Ultimately no complaints with how it drives.

Really aggressive setup! Do you plan to upgrade your brakes too? They look like taken from an Opel Corsa now !
