701M Wheels

I'm looking at placing an order for a X3 30d M sport but haven't decided yet about which rims to choose.
My initial idea was to go for the 699M 20". The car I test drove had the 726I 21" Individual wheels. My wife liked these better and in my opinion they looked good as well but maybe a bit 'to much' for me. After looking at all the options my wife really liked the 701M 21" wheels but I can't find any real life pictures of it being fitted on an X3. It looks like they haven't been on the market to long as M performance part and been introduced for the X4 as well.

Does anyone have the 701M fitted on his(or her) X3?

i think this might help you get a good view at how it looks on a G01 :


i personally like the 726 way more, but just my own preference

Thanks, that's a good one! I like the 726I as well, so yeah haven't decided yet. Color is going to be back sapphire black with alu trim. Everyone seems getting the shadow trim on M Sport, so I decided to do the alu trim :P

indeed, you are righ, everybody goes with the shadow line trim.
I hesitated between the 726 ans the 718M on aftermarket but after seeing several ones with the 726 i started to really love them
