I have a 2006 530xit . It came with a sport pakage but has the 17 inch wheels. I see very few with the 18 inch wheels I was reading that the 530xit has a different wheel off set then the 530xi sedan is this true? I know you the xi has a different wheel then the non xi but does the xit have a different rear wheel size then the xi? Basically could I buy used 530xi 18 inch sport package wheels?

xi and xi touring have same offset.

The difference comes when you try to install wide tires (275 or more) or really wide wheels. Due to air suspension Touring has less space for wider wheels.

The orignal 18" Xi wheels goes well under Touring.
