How's it going guys, Im new to the forum and was wondering if all the research I did for this fitment will work. I own a 530 wagon AWD and I'm looking into Breyton Gts-r 20x10 rear 20x8.5 front.285 rear tire, and a 245 front tire. Would anyone change these specs ? Also who is a good contact to purschase the wheels from ? Thanks in advance.

The off set are not enough....
Also Lowering springs =Bad...
The E61's have Air springs in the rear, so the only recommended option is Coil overs.

the offsets I think are et22 front and et17 rear - 20x9 front / 20x10 rear - does breyton make this offset and sizing ? running a 295/25/20 rear and a 255/30/20 front

For lowering I run the Eibach Pro kit with standard shocks in the front and the rear dropped by programming only. Works perfect to date. Not too agressive lowering but I need some clearance for the sh*tty roads in Sweden. The GTS-R are awesome wheels btw

And be careful about the front setup. I run 9x20 ET20 with 255/35s and I need 5mm spacers to clear the spring support on pass.side. Maybe you'll get away with the 30 profiles but just wanted to give you a heads up

They do for the RWD ones in Europe...
Watch out for some of the info given here since most of the European drivers are in RWD cars while all the E61's in the USA and Canada are AWD and have different wheel and suspension set up's.
