A used alloy wheels that fits one vehicle won't always fit another - even within the same model range. These questions help breakers match stock to your exact vehicle before they quote:
The BMW X5 has run across four generations: the E53 (1999–2006), the E70 (2006–2013, with a facelift in 2010), the F15 (2013–2018, with a facelift in 2016), and the G05 (2018–present). Knowing which generation your X5 belongs to is the starting point for finding matching alloys, as the key fitment specs — bolt pattern (PCD), offset, and centre bore — changed between generations. Check your V5C or enter your reg with the breaker to confirm exactly which generation you have.
Both a 2009 and a 2012 X5 sit within the E70 generation (2006–2013), so provided the PCD, offset, and centre bore match, the alloys should interchange. The E70 uses a 5x120 PCD and a 74.1mm centre bore throughout the generation, so this is a promising cross-year fit. That said, always confirm the specific offset of the wheels you're buying against your car's spec with the breaker before purchasing, as individual wheel variants across the E70 range can differ.
This spans the E70-to-F15 generation boundary, and while both generations share the 5x120 PCD and 74.1mm centre bore, offset specifications can vary between individual wheel fitments across that boundary. You should name this boundary clearly to the breaker and ask them to check the offset of the specific wheels against your car's requirements before committing. Do not assume they will swap without that confirmation.
Trim level does not affect the fundamental fitment specs of alloy wheels — the PCD, offset, and centre bore are the same across SE, Sport, xDrive and M Sport trims within the same generation. Where trim does make a difference is appearance: M Sport and higher-spec trims typically came with larger, more distinctive alloy designs, so a set of SE wheels fitted to an M Sport car will fit correctly but may look noticeably different. If you want to preserve the look of a specific trim, mention this to the breaker so they can match the style as well as the fitment spec.
No — engine choice (whether petrol or diesel, and whichever size) has no bearing on alloy wheel fitment for the BMW X5. What matters is the generation, PCD, offset, and centre bore, not what is under the bonnet. This means a set of wheels from a 3.0d will fit a 4.4i of the same generation, provided those three specs align.
TPMS sensor compatibility is not something we can confirm as fact, as it depends on the specific sensor type, frequency, and whether your car's system can be relearned to new sensors. You should raise this directly with the breaker, giving them your registration, so they can advise on whether the sensors in the wheels they're supplying are compatible or whether you'd need to swap or recode them.
