can you take a pic of the top portion of the rear lips to see how it looks with them Cut?... I have the same issue rubbing the side of the rear sidewall when I have 1-2 people in the back. I was thinking of pushing them out like 5mm if i could. I think it would clear, cuz It's super close.

 

I have a 545 sport and my setup is ... 245/35/20f and 285/35/30r....no rubbing at all.

 

so for the most part it seems like the average person running 20's either need a super low wall and/or need to modifie their fenders...... well it looks like 19's may be a safer bet and better approach to this issue rather then touching the fenders... i personally have been looking at 20's and wanted 20's but im not really willing to start modifying the fenders and i do not want rubbing to be an issue at all.... keeping the car cl;assy and rubbing ruins that real quick.... so i guess 19's are the only thing for me to do..... so wow, the sport package really lowers it just enough to have to fit certain packages... interesting

 

iam running hankook tires

245 30 20

275 30 20




the guy's says imust go with front 245 35 20 put idont find in the shop , and ifeel no rubbing , just ihear big noise when i pass on higher parts of street , what you think of my tires, do my car look lowerd or no ?

 

are those mmr Gt1's?? looks good

 

Do you have MRR GT-1 wheels?
Ad which brand of tires do you have?

I'm assuming you're running 245/35/20 fronts and 285/30/20 rears.
Is that correct?

 

i didnt cut the rear lip i just rolled it.but after that it would still rub on something till i noticed it was rubbing in the inner bumper lip right where the bumper and the rear fender meet(quarter panels).

 

going back to what surf1woody said in pervious post,

Can you have 20" on a standard bmw setup(No sport packs etc)? i dont want to lower my car,

 

For the last two weeks I have checked almost every post on this forum about wheels .I m in a big dilemma to upgrade wheels and tires on my Black 2004 530i with regular suspension. Please help me as this post is somewhat related to my issue. I am deciding between
A. Vossen 082 machined black
B. Vertini Hennessy
C. MRR HR6 (no lip) .


Now the biggest question, 19" or 20" .

I am not a pro at mods and do not want to roll the fenders and obviously do not want any rubbing (as evryone) . Some of the members have recommended tire sizes as 245/35/20 (f) and 275/30/20 ? and one post says some other sizes. I really want to get this straighten-out to plan accordingly.



Please try to rate the wheels as 1 ,2 and 3 as 1 being most siutable.

Thanks in Advance.

 

does anyone have a guide for cutting your fenders (front/back) ? i need to since i get rubbing up front! if someone could show me / tell me the best way to go about this i would appreciate it!

also would getting m5 fenders on the front solve the front rubbing issue? or no
