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.

the offset (negative or positive) is how far in or out your wheel is on your car. you can shave off the center bore of the rim to get a higher offset (more inside, bigger lip). if you get the right offset, which i am not clear on what it is, you won't rub. mines don't rub but i had them made for an e60, which in turn used the offsets of an e60, but iForged knows that not me.

correct. i originally said biggest, widest with biggest lip all round without ANY rubbing conditions, and they said 20x8.5 and 20x10 with their respective offsets.
