Wheels BMW X5 I (E53) [1999-2003]

Presented at the end of 1999, the BMW X5 is the first SUV in the history of the Bavarian brand. In retrospect, it is safe to say that the first generation X5 (factory code E53) popularized the luxury SUV segment. As befits a representative of this segment, the X5 has an advanced four-wheel drive. However, thanks to the factory settings that favor the rear-wheel drive characteristics (standard 62% of the engine torque goes to the rear axle), the SUV drives like a real BMW. As a result, in terms of driving experience, it is closer to the brand's classic limousines. The interior of the X5 offers high-quality materials for this brand and befits this segment. The fitting of the whole is at a high level, thanks to which even copies from the beginning of production are relatively quiet while driving.

The BMW X5 E35 is powered by both petrol and diesel engines. The latter have a power of 184 hp or 214 hp. The petrol V8s, on the other hand, offer power from 286 hp to a dizzying 360 hp. The base drive unit is an in-line six with 231 hp.

Which rims for the BMW X5 E53 to choose?

The first generation BMW X5 is a car that conquered the world market. Large, practical, offering a high position behind the wheel, and at the same time driving almost as well as five in a station wagon. Four-wheel drive also allows you to venture off-road. And even if the X5 spends most of its time in the city, here too you can enjoy the driving characteristics of a large SUV. Distinctive black wheel arches and protective bumper covers emphasize the off-road character of the car. At the same time, the two double tailpipes present on the most powerful versions give a sporty touch.

Which alloy wheels for the BMW X5 E53 to choose? If we care about the additional comfort of suppressing surface imperfections, it is better to choose smaller rims (up to 19 inches), which will allow them to be shod with a tire with a larger profile. The same principle will also work in the case of cars used off-road, where it is much easier to deal with possible mechanical damage to the wheels. Larger rims will work well in cars used mainly on routes.

The BMW wheels offered in our store are top-class products. Therefore, we invite you to check and take advantage of our extensive offer.
