Yeah they are xxrs and I believe it's the same setup as the ones that you have. I'm not sure the offsets but they are 9.5/10.5. I got them from a steal from a customer of mine.
I (almost) read all of this thread but couldn't find your wheels specs. XXR?

ps: from your previous post on the sleeve welded, is this similar to the shocks welded for e30, or just extra thickness for the x3 to accept the e46 suspension?
LOL Its just extra thickness wleded to accept the E46 front struts. I had to take measurements to ensure they were both even. The base of the Front struts sit a few inches away from the axle-boots. With the coils all the way up it still sits lower than the KW setup. The rears could go a lot lower as well but Im going to get a waaaaayyy better setup before doing so. Every now and then due to the soft spring rate it will bottom out on the body as if it needs to be c-notched but obv you cant. So I need to get a stiffer spring rate and adjustable rear shocks. Like I said this was just a test phase which everything with this thing is.

Blurry Ass Toaster Pic..This is what happens when you try to take a picture of your car without anyone noticing as you walk out of store holding Big Red in one hand chips and phone in the other while trying to keep your kid from running out infront of a car. Epic fail attempt of capturing the dopeness before you.

Out of curiosity, does being so low make the car feel... erm, smaller? haha or can you still tell it's built with going off road in mind? And it sits beautifully, you should get a photo shoot done
Thanks man, and yes it def feels smaller. There is no off road feel to it at all. It rails corners and only time it has the off road feel is when I have to climb a speed bump one wheel at a time, not to mention the angled steep driveway attempts lol Shes a long way from photo shoot, but thanks again man lol

Yup, I definitely like these wheels better haha. Dish always looks good on bimmers! 19s correct?
Thanks fellas, these will just be a temp setup. 10.5s up front should make it sit pretty boss. Since this a day to day hauler Ill keep these to daily. No bro they are 18s.lol
E46 setup compared to the KWs..E46 setup no where near maxxed out as the KWs were. As the Mazda 6 towers above the X3.
