I want to get 20 inch chrome rims for my 2006 530xi, since its awd I know it has a different offset than the rwd. Do you know what offset I need and recommended tire size? Thanks.
These are the rims I'm trying to get TIS07.

xi models have a much higher offset than the non-xi model e60s, and tire size will depend on the dimensions of the wheel.

Kevin, don't get Chrome man!
Only thing that should be chrome on our car is the front grills and the lip of the wheels if you have a lip. Nothing else man!

If I got those chrome rims, then I wouldn't show up at any meets in NY/NJ. Because I don't want to get beat up by the ENVY and JEALOUSY crowd.

But that's me.
