    Another "spot-on" review. I owned a 2020 X5 that had 21" wheels and swapped for a 2020 X6 with 22" wheels and I have not looked back. The X6 feels lighter to me and more agile than the X6. I have no issues with the 22" wheels and they are a must (just a little difference with road feel to me). Dead-on with the seating position and the windshield tilt, makes you feel like you are higher. The crystal shifter was a must-have and adds a special touch for sure. My X5 had the Harmon Kardon stereo, however, my X6 has Bowers Wilkins and it's worth it also. Visibility out the back suffers but you get used to it. Thanks again...

      Vinnie thanks for such great feedback! Yes the 22" for us were a must on the X6 (looks wimpy without them). The car was overall outstanding and if not for the lack of space in the trunk, it'd be my go to as family car. Thanks for watching :)

      How many miles have you driven with the 22"? Any off-road driving? I'm guessing that you haven't driven more than 10K yet...or off road or wet/snow. If you drive in perfect dry road and don't mind the cost of frequent replacements...at higher prices and loss of comfort, the 22" does look better to some people.

    • @thedesertroad
      @thedesertroad  Год назад +2

      Agreed , the sound was fantastic coming out of the 6 cylinder. You will surely get more space in X5 (we also have a review of that on our channel) - but for styling and class in the X6 is a level above. You can't go wrong with either. Thanks for watching :)

    What the different between the x6 and the x4?

    • @thedesertroad
      @thedesertroad  Год назад +2

      Size, a bit of 'shape' although they are similar, and engine and powertrain choices. I significantly prefer the X5/X6 platform to their smaller siblings. Thanks for watching !!

  • @joem8252
    @joem8252 Год назад +2

    22 inch weeks are great, but for 2/3 of the US gets snow and the 20s are amazing year round and no need for winter tires. Also only about $800 to get them powder coated black.

    • @thedesertroad
      @thedesertroad  Год назад +1

      You are absolutely correct. Way more choices for tires for the 20s as well. Thanks for the comment and for watching!!

    I am about buy one. Do you know if there is difference in drive comfort ability with 21 inch wheels or anything over 20 will not be as smooth?

    • @thedesertroad
      @thedesertroad  Год назад +1

      Obviously there will be a ride quality difference the smaller in size wheel you go (as it gives tire more sidewall). Typically I am pretty sensitive to these changes. Having said all that the X6 did a phenomenal job, having the adaptive suspension in the M-Sport smooth all of that out. I was seriously surprised how well the drive was on this around town and freeway. Not overly harsh or noisy in any way. This is again on the 6 cylinder version. If you go m50i, it won't ride as well due to the added weight of the car over the wheels. Good luck and report back!!
