So I finally ordered a set of wheels, I've been obsessing over it for about a month I think. It was driving me nuts trying to imagine what the 20 inch wheel would look and feel like. I decided for a while that the Vertini Concave was the one! Then did more research and changed my mind to the Adv1 Adv10, then to Interad, and then D2forged. I finally found the style I truly want and I hope I don't change for a while. Concave with Deep lip! All of which are out of my price range, so I settled with the concept one RS8, and its on its way! :twoup: My 1st set of any aftermarket wheels. :hyper:
Now the problem is I need to take a 1000 mile road trip to Toronto and back. I still haven't figured out what size tire will protect my new wheels from damage and also without rubbing. :confused: Can someone suggest a tire size to wear on my road trip? I think the more rubber the safer, but I cant figure how I can do that with rubbing. I drive a 530i non sport and it has a pretty huge gap in the wheel well. :thumbsdown: If any one thinks to take my 20's is a bad idea altogether please let me know. thanks D |
Two thousand miles of open asphalt in a 5-series in order to get new stuff for the 5-series... yep, that's a big problem :wow:

It has been said that a non-sport, non-dropped E60 with 20's does not look good. But its okay. Get your wheels, try them on, drive with them for a while - you'll come around :thumbsup:
Good choice on wheels, btw! :twoup: As for tires, not seeing what widths you're getting here, but off the top of my head, most people use 245/30/20 fronts and 285/25/20 rears. 275-width rears should work, but if I'm not mistaken, its one of those "ghost" sizes - almost impossible to find a manufacturer who produces it. |
