Hi guys,

New to the forum. Looks great!
Can anyone tell me if I have understood this correctly:

19" M 172 or the 19" M6 wheels fit my 525XDAT if I use the front wheels all around?
This, without using spacers...?

Best

Claus

The m6 have even less offset - what you need are rims with much higher offsets. For wheels that are 8" wide, your offset needs to be in the 30s...

No can do on either wheels. You need 3 series wheels or wheels with offsets of ET35 or higher. PM me if you need help.
