Thumbs up

hey guys, i have a 2004 530I sport package and i want to put 20" black rims and drop it with H&R sport springs, i was wondering does the 20" rims affect the rim quality or is it perfect, not to big, not to small? also would you go for 19" or 20", i mean i dont want it to rub and also i dont want it to take away the performance part of it but i also want it to look nice. does anyone have pics of 20" with H&R spring drop?

*pic not working*


i had a bit of rubbing but it went away. i'm guessing it was within the wheel well and not on the fender.

the ride is notieceably different, a bit more stuff. you can feel the bumps more, but not too bad. i wanted to go lower, but dont want to deal with rubbing issues

heres some old pics but heres what you asked for 20" with H&R sport..My rear fenders had to be rolled.. however I believe it was due to the fact that I went with a 285/30/20 on my 20x10 I htink if I went with a 275/30/20 I would have been fine but its also that Zenetti doesn't have a perfect offset like a 3pc. Forged wheels would
