Are the width of the back wheels the same as the front? It looks like it, just curious? 20x9 front and back. The back don't seem to be 20x10, but it could be the picture angles fooling me.

Nice wheels, I like the desing but too much rim for the size of the tires. Scratches comming your way. 
I had a set of Breyton Magics before that were like that. Men, I scratched every single one. Eventually I had to go with wider tires to compensate, but the tire diameter had to grow making the car a bit too high for my taste. Just recently I hit my tire lightly against a curb and nothing happened 
Anyway, 20s look perfect man. and the height does not seem to be as high as other non SPPs <_< . I meesed with suspensions in all my BMWs, this car is a no no. Don't mess your ride comfort. Congratualtions

Looks very nice.
What?s the offset of the wheels.
I?m planning to put on my 19" RH wheels soon. They are 8.5x19" ET10 and
9.5x19" ET22.
Would these change the track width too much? I?m not sure about the standard offset. Have the 124 wheels on now.

Hartge goes with factory specs which are 15 and 22 respectively. Actually I'm planning to add spacers on the rear to push the wheels a bit more. That will make the rear with 12 offset!!. My original RH wheels (18x8.5 & 18x9.5) had an offset of 12 all around. I think that is the best set up.

My Ride: E60
I love the Alpine White. White used to be such a common color in the U.S. (as silver cars are now), but white isn't as common now. And for that, I like it a lot. I saw a white E60 the other day and it looked AWESOME (as the one above does).

OK 20inched5series, you posted then disappeared. I see on Tirerack, you can get these wheels in 20x9.5 and 20x10.5. That is a nice option. Did you do this, or did you go with 9.5 all the way around? How do they fit (any rubbing) if you did get the 10.5 rears?
