Is there any need for spacers on the back wheels to push out the 275 wheels back to factory spacing?
I personally don't think wheel spacers are a good idea under any conditions, but looks are very subjective, so go for it if you feel they are needed. Just remember that, especially in the winter, the further the tires stick out, the more shit they are kicking up onto the side of your X5.

A wider stance looks great in the summer but I'm not a fan with winter wheels & tires.
Many thanks. Makes sense. The majority of opinions I have now received are that spacers are a bad idea due to additional stress on the hub and also different tire tracks in the snow.
I think I will stick with the original square setup.
I really appreciate the original post as I think the art replica 181 wheels are a great look at a good price point. Thanks again.
