Looks great! I almost went with the same wheel set/specs. Any particular reason for not going with the 285/295 tire setup?

I changed my mind on the tire set up almost every other day before I made the purchase lol. I knew both set ups would be fine with the x drive. However I went with the 275 front to avoid any rubbing issues. I know if you get the 285 and fix the vent on the inner fender liner you’re fine I just didn’t feel like dealing with it at the time and I thought a .7 ratio was better then a 1.1 ratio for the xdrive. My car also has the first generation of the KW HAS kit. So at max height in the rear the 285 fits perfect I don’t think the 295 would have fit without a little rubbing.

I had 285/30 cup 2's on the rear 11's and they looked too stretched for me. Went with 295/30 and it fills the gap a bit better and offers a bit more sidewall. So, I have a fresh set of 285/30 cup 2's with like 10 miles in my attic.

Contemplating swapping my back 826Ms for a set of Apex VS5-RSs in either Black or Anthracite. I'm concerned that Anthracite finish might clash with the Skyscraper Gray paint. Does anyone have this setup and care to share a photo?

Because they are cheap stock steelies. They just are. Heavy as fu*k next to my Volks. The design is ok but they are stock and spacers don’t make them any better. If you can afford a $140k CSL you can spend $6-20k for wheels cash.

Some of us have night vision equipment that cost more than BMW M wheels. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yeah the bronze didn't get much love here, but the color works for me.

The wheels are LFI
