Hi All,
I need some help deciding on wheels for X7 in Black Sapphire Metallic with M Sport. Not opting for professional package. Which wheels do you think will best go with this combination?

There is only one 21" available with the M Sport which is the wheel in the picture of the car. There are only two 22" available with the M Sport..the first two wheels from the left are available (the jet black light alloy & bi-color light alloy). The third and fourth wheels from the left are not available with the M Sport. The last wheel, the fifth one is a 23" and it is available with the M Sport. In your picture there is a wheel on the left that I can see only half of it...I'm not counting it. It is not available anyway with the M Sport trim. What size are you planning to get?

I am trying to find the one which would look the best. I like 23inch option but found it cost $4.5k to replace it so a bit on fence with that one.

I'm guessing the ride on 23s isn't that enjoyable either.

It's actually not bad at all. And I'm driving on the 3rd world streets of Chicago all day.

Every single review I’ve read says unequivocally to not get the 23” wheels. I like the looks of them, but am sticking with the 22”.

I too like the way the 23" looks. But most people advise against them.

I would go with the 22" Bi-color light alloy...I like the way they look. It's $1,300 extra. With that said, the standard 21" looks nice as well.

Might need to buy the Alpina then. They won't sell you the wheels without proof of XB7 ownership.

"Not bad" vs. Great?

I personally wouldn't pay $2600 for wheels unless they provide a great/enjoyable ride!

I think I could talk a gm to tell their parts department to order the wheels. Pull a vin from a previous customer

But you at right it is not as simple .

I'll take the .92g on the skidpad and 149 foot stop from 70mph the 23's offer over a marginal increase in "comfort".

Plus they look amazing so it's a win/win for me.

As long as you like it...that's what counts!
