Help, best 21" Wheel Options for X5M??

So I will be picking up a E70 X5M in a couple of weeks and I am looking for wheel options. From reading online, h&r springs give a good drop but ride like ass. Only other option really is to go with KW v3 for suspension and I wont be doing that for a while. So the car has the oem 299's on it now but I feel like they are too small for the truck. Getting 22's with oem height will look funky because of the sidewall of the tire will be to thin, so I believe 21's are the way to go for now. Now the unfortunate part is that i was looking at Rohana RF2 wheels and they only make them in 20 or 22. I want a concave looking wheel for this car and am having trouble finding other wheel brands that make it.

I am asking you guys to post pics of your 21's or help me with any reference to wheel companies that make concave 21's for this car. Budget cap is around 3k for wheels.

This is the style im going for.

With the screen name and seeing that you're in NJ with an Mcoupe....I'm guessing your Andre. We met up a while ago back when I used to live in NY.

I think you'll really like the X5M. It has a lot of potential in the boost category. Speaking of which...hows the M Coupe project coming along?

Good choice on style of wheel IMO. On a side note, (since the pic has the logo) I've purchased a set of wheels from Unleashed Wheels and have nothing but good things to say. Great service, communication and pricing was very competitive.

Yooo buddy. How's that roadster? I'm hoping to have a little street sweeper with it. Gonna try and set the stock turbo world record once I get it.

Roadster is running well. the plan is for w/m injection and track days

Are you planning a to put complete custom turbos? I know most people go with Pure Turbos. Eventually I may put a tune with w/m injection.
