Hi all just been recommended to your site for any help and advise as a new owner. First thing I need help with is I need a 19" rear wheel as my tpms valve has corroded very badly and taken some of the wheel with it and will not stay inflated. So I'm looking for either 1 wheel or a set of nice 20" wheels and tyres. My car is a 2004 53 plate 3.0l diesel sport. Thanks in advance.
Rich

Hello and welcome :)

Wheels and your X5 look tidy - have you tried to get the wheel repaired? I am sure that would be possible

If not then i would try ebay - if nothing specific listed they try sending messages to those breaking cars to see if they have what tou want.

All the best

Thanks for the replies. I got it repaired to other day but it didn't work so they have re done it and I just got it back and so far is holding pressure so fingers crossed it will be ok. I'll try eBay again later. Thanks guys
