My Ride: 535d Sport, carbon black, media pack, visibility pack, grey leather, heated seats, sun protection glass, voice control, Eibach ProKit, 19" 166 style wheels, e-maps ECU remap to 325hp and 640NM, top speed limiter removed
9x20 ET20 front and 10x20 ET25 rear as advertised on their website are perfectly fine. With the 25 offset on the rears, you should also not get any rubbing problems, either. On tyres you have 3 options really. Standard conversion would be 245/30/20 and 285/25/20 or 255/30/20 and 295/25/20 to keep the rolling radius and dia as close to original as possible. Problem is the 295's might still require arch rolling (might) and the 285 combo opens a fat optical gap and doesn't leave much rubber on the rim.
The slightly oversized combo (in terms of wheel dia and circumference), which many on here, me included, use, is 245/35/20 with a 275/30/20 rears. These will leave a nice amount of meat on the rim, still fit under perfectly fine, have a higher load index than the 25series tyres and also pretty nicely reduce the optical gap appearing otherwise.
Up to you to decide now.
Good luck and don't forget the pics when done

Very nice choice. I like those wheels a lot. I'm starting to rethink the 166's I have on and I may pick up a set of the 167's...I didn't know they were available in 20's though...
Let us know if you have any vibration issues.

Yeah they have great pricing...ALT Miro has a Version 2 , its a smoothed edge version its not sharp like the OE, painted in a gunmetal or polished my 2 cents! Either way its a win win
