Hello,

I am trying to decide which wheels and the best deal to buy right now.

I am leaning towards going with VMR 710's in a staggered setup for my 2008 lci 535xi

I would run 245/35/19's on front and 275/30/19's in the rear with a 35 and 45 offset respectively. I think running staggered is ok for xi, right? The wheel is 9.5 in rear and 8.5 in front. This setup with a decent tire is going to run about $2000 with tpms sensors

Question 1: If you were making this mod, what would you do and where would you get it from?

Question 2: Are there any used setups out in the forum that will work for me that would be similar and allow me to spend less than 2k? Remember that the xi requires high offset. (30+)

I also like the Breyton gts-r in matte black and the miro 111's. Your help is appreciated. I have to get off my stock 17's.

What color is your car? I personally think the V710s look hawt on E60s...especially matte black on the charcoal/dark silver...

I'd go w/ 285/30/19 rear wheel on your setup, but the tire cost diff. will a lot ...
If you have choice go 10" rear on offset 40 ... and 285 width tire ... go wide!

you can do 19x8.5 35 offsets and 19x 9.5 40offsets thats what i have on my xi no rubbing at all. I got the M6 reps one of the best wheels for the e60 and you can def get it for less that $1400 with wheels and tires. i got mine for $1350 last month
