View Full Version : Got 06' X3 today, wheel upgrade?
vwsnaps 04-17-2006, 11:02 PM I finally sold my 99 M3 and bought / lease a 2006 X3. I got silver with the sport package, i love the M steering wheel!
Anyways, i want to upgrade the wheels and tires. What options do i have?
What about exhaust upgrade? OR chipped performance that might help with gas mileage?
My wife even likes it! Which was a shocker, that pano sunroof it AWESOME!
SilverBeam 04-17-2006, 11:35 PM yeah, I <3 the sunroof. Check out the venders, there should be software, and there are wheels. I don't know about ehxaust, but I'm sure someone is doing that.
www.tirerack.com for wheel options. I'd get some ACS Type 3 replicas for ours if we didn't offroad it all the time.

SilverBeam 04-18-2006, 02:07 AM look good w/o chrome. 20 would be too much for an X3 IMO
vwsnaps 04-18-2006, 02:49 AM I have 19 inch MVR's on my m3 im trading in, i wonder if they would fit the X3?
I love those wheels.....
I would have to get different tires im sure with some side walls but i wonder .....
SilverBeam 04-18-2006, 02:52 AM yeah, the offset should fit
vwsnaps 04-18-2006, 03:13 AM i was trying to find my fricken mirror to read the offset of my MVR's, that would be sweet. But then i would have to find wheels tomorrow morning to trade in my m3, which probably wont be an easy task

SilverBeam 04-21-2006, 02:13 AM oh those seats are nice. I really do like the painted bumpers too, we'd scratch that up with how we treat it.
I think the MVRs would look great, and I'm pretty sure that they will fit.
vwsnaps 04-21-2006, 11:46 PM the MVR's went with the M3 :(
I bought 20 inch Style 87's they will be here tuesday!
xmanjack 04-24-2006, 12:17 PM The self color trim on your X3 looks great.
Style 87 wheel is still my favorite,but will the 20'' fit on your X3?
I thought the lug off-set would be different since your car is built on the 3 series format.:conf Just wondering.:buttrock
vwsnaps 04-28-2006, 12:43 AM They fit, ill take pic and post it tomorrow
