New Rims and Pink emblems

Here are some pics of my new wheels. I put wheel arches on and 20'' wheels. I put pink/black carbon fiber on the BMW emblems. I assume I will be getting made fun of and laughed at for it. My wife is taking the car now and I will be driving the commuter car because of work. Bring on the jokes!

Another example that there is nothing we won't do for our wife's ), I assume the color combo was her idea?
Wheels and arches looks good, car looks clean!

Considering how much better your X5 looks with the arches and the 20s, who cares about the pink center caps! Hopefully you'll be driving so fast, no one will notice them.

I've never had 18's on my X5 - always OEM 20's. Perhaps the 18's are noticeably smoother, but no way can you describe 20's as 'thrashing over bumps' On my test drives before buying, I was surprised how smooth/quiet the 20's were, even w/ run flats.
