Have been out of the forum for a while, never got around to do the wheel swap on my 08 550i.

Came across these wheels browsing mod bargains.

Forgestar CF10
Forgestar CF10 Wheels BMW 19"/20"

19x8.5 front
But
19x10 or 11 rear.

Anyone running that width rear? 305/30 tire?
Also, would i need any mods to fit that wide of a wheel/tire in the back? I would probably want to adjust the camber out back to get a slightly flatter contact on the rear tire.

 

305 in the rear is huge, would be awesome to see. Not sure if anyone has done that.

On the wheel choice, IMO they look a little too "tuner" for a 5 - would be more at home on a WRX or Civic.

 

Different wheels, but here's Keith's Avant Garde M310: 19 x 11 / 305/30/19

^ as nice as those wheels are, eveyone in a 5 series has that mesh pattern. wanting to try something different

 

NO WAY, too pricey. You could buy a nice set of lexani or asantis at that price

 

Why would you want to get Lexani or Asanti wheels? Those are not all that great and look way to blingy for a European sport sedan.

OP - How about these:

Avante Garde M510 or

Forgestar CF5V (but in a non-black color)

 

Alterzgo, great choices! and yea the lexani and asanti doent give me the performance look.

Wonder how much those wheels are? I think i might go with a gun metal finish.

Another one was the VMR 713 or 701

So, no on 19x10 or 19x11 rear wheels? Would be nice to see a fat reat tire on my 550i

 

Man that looks great, i need to ask that guy if he had to modify anything to make that 305 fit

 

I think Keith was running spacers on his wheels.

I'm running 19 x 11 with 295/30/19 Looks beefy from the back. 305 should look pretty aggressive.

Side note: ugly spoiler has been removed subsequently. lol

are you using any spacers? what wheel are you running? offset?
