tire size is 255/35/20 front and 285/30/20 rear..? the rear rim isnt too wide for the tire, it's the lip sticking out which is what i originally wanted.? you dont see much tire, you see LIP? ? I can't wait to slam it.? i feel like i ordered the optional Rancho package from bmw? ? long story on the HREs.? I didn't return them because I never bought them, i ordered them with a 1k deposit and when they came in the wheel shop kept them wheels because they didnt come in how i ordered them.? coinsidently these did.

Those look great. However, I wonder if you're risking the lips of those back rims with them being so exposed.

i agree.. but i also figured that 285/30 would cover the entire rim.. i like how they look and anyways, i have road hazard insurance on them from BMW. my contract covers aftermarket wheels as well as BMW factory wheels, except they won't give you more than what 1 BMW wheel is worth. last i saw a factory wheel costed around 600 or 700 for each, just about what these iforged cost me... so that works out

Those polished rims look good on black. Have you seen the new iforged daytonas and equips? I'd be happy with either one.

that's why i got a high polish finish and not brushed or painted. the contrast is awesome. i saw the ones you were talking about but remember i got these by chance... my hre's didn't come in with the config i wanted <_<

They came in with a 2 in the front and a 4 in the back.? I would've settled for the 4 but not the 2.? Anyway it worked out because i was able to get the iForged Aero's with the lips i wanted and for like half the price the very next day.? some guy had backed out of a deal..? check out the pics below.? I get my H&R Sport springs on monday so bare with me on the 4x4 look?

e60 got lip,

Have you lowered the car yet and if so have you taken any pics yet? I'd love to see the finished product.
