E60 offset, and E60 centerbore. J/K

Will be 19x8.5 ET25 in front, and 19x9.5 ET22 in the rear. Centerbore is 72.6.

All of the wheels have same specs as OE wheels for best fit.

Looks good so far Peter.........

You should take some pictures from an angle so we can get a look at the offset look from the sides too!

Also if you made the 708 in a 20" for he E60, id be one of the 1st to line up and buy.....

Those 708 wheels in your gallery look sick on the 3'er

One Word: Dubs!

If they were, I'd take the 710's in a heartbeat. Also, your front ET's are a bit high. Unfortunately for me, I couldn't use them on my car. ET15 would be a better "generic" front offset for everyone here, aside from xi owners.

ModBargain's web site states they are available in ET20 & ET35 only, for the 8.5" widths....true?

DRLev, the offset is at ET25 for more "tunability" giving more options for tires. My VB3 is at ET22 up front, and from a appearance standpoint, you can't tell a diff. between 3mm. I might end up bringing the offset down a little bit in subsequent productions depending on how well received this new wheel is.
