I hope i made a good decision, i just bought the MRR wheels for my 530i, 20"s, i also ordered the HRR Kit to lower it! Wheels and tires (falkens) should be in within 2 days along with the kit. Hope i find a good place to lower it and doesn't charge me much and does a good job!!

ps: The 18" Staggered 550i wheels i put on mine are for sale now! they have bridgestone potenza tires that have less than 10K on them, those wheels are off an 07" 550i. Make me an offer, i can sell them on friday!

1) Hope the wheels and lowering kit do not kill the ride

2) Hope the wheels don't rub and i have to roll fenders and deal with all that BS.

Got similar on mine, except with BMW roundels in the middle.
No rubbing issues - I have Eibach prokit springs on, with std M-sport shocks.
Falken's should be a offer a big improvement in ride quality over the B'stones.
Those alloys do look fabulous on a black car - lets see a pic!
