I was thinking about getting some rims for my 05 silver grey 530i, but i dont know if i want to go staggered or non staggered and I dont really know what kind of wheels i'm wanting. If anyone could post pics of their rims and rides it would help me out alot. I was leaning towards the multispoke like the hennessy but lately i've been checking out the 5 or 6 spoke rims. All i know is i want a FFFAAT lip on my ride.

They are a staggered setup. 9x20 in the front and 10x20 in the rear.

staggered will be more expensive, since you can't rotate. However, you seem to want the fat lip look, so staggered would be the best in terms of looks. Spacers will help also.

Definitely go staggered, you won't regret it and you'll get that "fat lip" you desire. By the way, 20x9 and 20x10s on my car.

Does it rub? Is that on a sport or non-sport model? Looks fantastic... I mean the car and the wheels...
