Question?

Can 20's fit on the 07 525I ? Im thinking that 20's are cheaper than the 19 rims and tires due to the odd size rims. It there is any modificaitons that need to be done to fit the 20's what are they. Thanks

It depends on the offset of the rim. What kind of rims do you want? 20" mostly will fit and at most you'll have to roll the fenders. I will also see if i will have to roll the front fenders too, cuz in spring i'm going 20" also.

But that's odd that you say that 20" are cheaper than 19" and tires too.

There's no need to roll fenders if we do the +1 upsize, right? Anyway do you think style 152-individual for the 7 series will fit?

From what I have seen, 20"s are MORE expensive than 19"s.

I think it's obvious that when we are comparing how the size affects the price of a wheel, we take two identical wheels with different sizes. Not of different brands.
