What should I be looking out for when I go take a look at them, and what questions should I be asking?
I’m very familiar with the OEM and specs, but not enough about pros and cons of aftermarket wheels.
They are:
9.5Jx22 ET37
10.5Jx22 ET43
5x112
66.6
Thanks!

Those offsets are very weak and are going the wrong way compared to factory X5M specs...
The wheels you are considering are 1" narrower all around. The front wheel wil be retracted 19mm and the rear wheel will be retracted 13mm from stock, which means that you will need 19mm and 13mm spacers just to get them back to factory specs. If you want a flush fit, you will have to go with a much more aggressive spacer.
Factory X5M wheel offsets are:
10.5x21 et31
11.5x22 et43
My offsets are more aggressive than stock, because lowered AND I wanted more of a flush fit;
22x10.5 et10
22x12 et28
I hope this helps!
