Need help to identify X6 wheel options
I'm thinking about leasing an X6 for my next vehicle.
My biggest roadblock right now is finding some wheels that I think look really good on the X6. I don't like the wheel options that BMW offers for the X6 so I've been Googling around trying to find some wheels that I like better. I have attached a picture of 2 wheel styles that I like. Please let me know if you know of any wheel makes/models that look like these that can fit on an X6. Thanks! |

This is the first time that I've tried to get custom wheels for a vehicle. Normally, the vehicle has a wheel option that I can live with but I just don't like any of the wheel options for the 2011 X6.
Considering my options - I thought about getting the default wheel/tire set for the X6 and then switching out the wheels and keeping the tires. However, it seems like there are very few aftermarket wheel options with the 19 x 9 wheel size that comes standard on the X6. So it looks like to have reasonable options I'll need to switch out the entire wheel and tire set for the vehicle. BTW - How do you normally handle this? Can you order a BMW without the stock wheels - just cheap black placeholders and possibly downgraded tires for a discount? Basically the wheels and tires would be throwaway since I would be replacing them within the first week. Or do you pretty much just need to take the base model and then get a very small discount by trading them in to the local shop that installs your new wheels and tires? |

I would just pick a wheel you like and call and see if they make it in 22's? He doesn't list all the wheel sizes on there. I like his inventory of one piece wheels. I'm considering one for spring of next yr. Gettin ready to throw some snow tires on for the winter.
