Has anyone out there changed their stock rims? I'm toying with the idea of changing my 20s.
Pics would be much appreciated.

Something I am considering on my Limited AWD too. But do you know the rim size, I know it is a 20". I am considering seeing what larger size tire I can get on these rims and putting on some Michelins. In my experience the Michelins on my Sorento, BMW135 track car, and Jaguar F type made a huge difference in traction, smoothness and ride quality. I think that Michelins might take out some of the harshness I have experienced in the Palisade vs our previous Sorento.Has anyone out there changed their stock rims?

Interesting. I thought you were trying to put the X7 wheels on the Palisade when I read your comment.BMW uses 5x120. I sourced those for our X7 because I hate our stock wheels. I hadn’t heard of Savini until I joined the X7 forums. The BMW guys seem to love them. A little expensive for my taste and maybe a little overkill for the Pal’e. The X7 guys like ‘em because they’re lighter. Reduces unstrung weight so your SUV is actually faster and stops quicker. Enough to notice? Probably not. Moving from 20 to 22 may negate any weight savings anyway. But they definitely look better,

Have you considered just powdercoating the stock wheels black? Will cost you a lot less money.I’m planning on keeping the same tire (if possible) and buy black rims.
22 inch rims. Ride quality is very slightly harder or not as plush but I honestly don’t feel a difference and the wife hasn’t said it feels harsher and she tells me everything when it comes to riding in the car. Only thing I’ve noticed is it seems gas mileage has taken a hit. Anyone else with 22” rims seeing the same? These are very light weight rims as well so if anything these are same or less weight than stock 20’s
