I took delivery on a 2010 550i.
It comes with the #167 wheels.
I had 20mm spacers on my old 530 with #166s (M5 style).
Are there any recommended spacer sizes for the 2010 550i wheels?
I never followed the offset analysis.
Any suggestions???

What about 225 stock 17's? Would 20mm spacers in front and rear make it look better? Right now when I put my Winter wheels on it looks like someone donkey punched my wheels into the fenders.

monaco === order from www.rogueengineering.com they will also save you on shipping if you order with the longer lugs which youll need anyway.. they are also hubcentric which helps for removal and also use anti-seize on them as well..
