I like the factory rims better than the gray rims.

I do like the look of it lowered but for everyday usability, I'd probably only drop it 1.5" from factory and then use spacers. Then when the tires are up for replacement, I'd get slightly wider tire specs and remove the spacers

I also agree with the prior comments that the X1 is the way to go if you want the turbo 6 vs 4-cyclinder turbo if you want a BMW small wagon in the states. It's too bad that BMW doesn't offer 5 series wagon.

By the way, I wish the X1 '35 came with factory exhaust outlets on each side (like 3/4 series) instead of one side.
