06 xi stick sport pk, wanna get the staggered with either 10s in the back, or 9.5s with spacers, but I don't wanna go super low on the sidewall - is that doable?

I tried searching, but didn't find anything...

OEM circumference 80.8in
245/30/20 - 81in (almost perfect)
285/25/20 - 80.5in (")

NM i see...

EDIT: I did some more searching and I see that it would only work if I didn't have a winter and summer setups, which would necessitate having to reprog the speedo every time I went from one to the other - impractical...

Vlad, I don't think the speedometer is accurate as is. Either that, or my nav system is off. With the winter setup (stock) or with the Miros, there is always a discrepancy between my speedometer and what the nav shows. So, mod away...

You don't have to reprog anything....the speedo is already off by 2mph as is. Do some 20's in the sized you suggested...and just make sure the car is low enough or 20's won't look right.

And you can go 245/35 and 285/30 if you want, for more sidewall. The 35/30 might not be ideal compared to OEM circumferences, but it works and offers more protection.

If you need any help on the offsets, find some rims you want and shoot me a PM re: the offsets. I'll calculate if they'll fit or not.

Thanks dudezzzz...

The problem is that I want Miro 935s in 20 and they only have 19s for Xi

DrLev99

Get some 19" Forgestar F14 rims, then, in gunmetal.

+1 there are Forgestars that will fit the xi, and with a 19 like that, the spokes come all the way out, no lip, so it appears a bit bigger.

random question for DrLev99. Sorry for the thread jack, but why did you go from M5 to 550i? im just curious.

Thanks!

C made him an offere he could not refuse

v_therussian

which way? if it shows 60 when I'm doing 58, then it is perfect...

19s are better for performance driving (less unsprung weight on the car than comparable 20) and are more resistant to damage from road hazards. But you know all that already.

20s make a great visual statement. The Miros are beautiful wheels. I also like the V710s which are also very competitively priced. When looking for my winter wheels, I got a great offer on them from Michael at Acute Performance (in 18 inch sizes) but, in an abudance of caution, I opted for OEM 123s.

Sounds like you will be stuffing some pretty big wheels in your wheel wells.
