Good ol' Breytons 
He's running 245/35/20 fronts and 275/30/20 rears, which raises the car up ~ 1.0".
To keep the BMW OEM rolling diameter specs, the tires should be 245/30/20 and 285/25/20.
A number of folks run the 35/30 series for rim protection. Dropping the car will definitely help

That is some good information.. Now I am wondering how many people who have upgraded to 20" wheels have lowered ther car. And do they have any rubbing issues?

My Ride: I have an 05 545i. It's a manual with a few options. This is my first BMW but I don't know how I'll ever be able to switch to something else.
I like the rims, they look very nice IMO. But agreed, a drop is needed ASAP. At least some H&R sport springs, they're cheap, easy to install and won't bottom out your car.
