Thanks for reminding me to bring the master wheel lock 
OK. Good enough for joke. Yeah, I'll lurking around M5board to look for used ones.
I love to go with 285/30 rear, but most of people goes for this size got rubbing issue. 275/30 is kind of small and prone to curb rash
What do you think?

Seems like everyone is loving their 285s. I seem to recall that Lomag is questioning his choice of 285s. I know that brian1225 has rubbing issues occasionally and that's after he rolled his fenders. That's because he's lowered with H&R Sport springs and has 12mm spacers. Matt BMW California has 285s and 12mm spacer set up as well but has not lowered it. I think he mentioned he rubs a bit?

You can. I have seen a XI with the 166s. I forgot who the member was. Either he didn't know or care that 166s aren't made to fit the XI.

My replicas fit perfectly on the Xi (74.1 mm). Want to buy a set of replicas (vibration included)?
But thanks anyway!

But since your offset would be the same as the OEM's which is set for a non-xi E60, we'd have the same issue as i mentioned above. But thanks anyway!
