Default went to the darkside...(BMW)

Well everyone, you have probably seen me post multiple times to this forum and this past Sunday I made a purchase....however I didn't go with the IS300. Instead I went with the BMW X5 (SUV). I really needed something to pull a boat with and obviously the IS was not the answer. I just couldn't justify having a car and a truck so I went with the compromise. Cost was a bit high (51,000) but I think in the long run it was the right choice.
Really enjoyed the posts here and meeting alot of you from the forum at F&F meet and wish you all the best with your cars and your racing endeavors!!

I think 18"s are factory standard, I'm not sure if you can order 19"s directly from BMW.
