Hi,

New to the site and been doing a ton of reading. Looking to see if an 06-530xi will be able to take the OEM 172 model wheel. (Specs found here: http://crass.on.ru/bmw/wheels/style/style_172.htm )

From what i can see the offset looks ok for the rear, am worried about the front.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated,

Cheers,

avdv.

to the forum ... I would recommend of utilizing the search button ...

It'll fit but it'll protrude outside the fender due to small/lower offset number ...
For xi/awd model you'll want to use big/high offset number such ET35-ET40 like 3-series/E9x model uses.

In other words, 172s will NOT fit.
