Hi everybody!
Has anyone try using his e60 Xi with lowtec springs?
I put 19 inch wheels on my car and looks worse cause of this gap between tyre and wing.
I ordered this spring and now waiting for them. I choose them because they have lowering 40/30 and now i'm affraid that i made a mistake, because couldn't find some information about them in the internet.
Anyway, to improve the statistics of offset i put 19x9 in the front and 19x10 in rear with 235/35/19 and 265/30/19. Offsets are 48 and 43. I decided to put this type of tyres because i need to look it little stretch on a rim and make offset lower. I will roll the fenders and it seems for me i need 10 mm (may be 15 mm) spacers in rear and 20 mm in front.

I think its impossible to put wheels from the 7 series on Xi without any body modifications. These are from X5.
Has anybody seen somebody on this forum with wheels and tires like mine? I mean 19x9 with 235/35/19 and 19x10 with 265/30/19?
I,m calculating the right offset for my wheels and i have two results: one is when i am calculating it consider to wheels and another when its consider to the tires. And it looks completely different. So i need to get right spacers from the beginning.
Everybode is using 245 and 275 (285) and i realy needs to know if those 10 (20) ?? (because i have 265) will influence on the thickness of the spacers what i need.

Get 245 and 275 or 285! Don't argue. ???????? ??????????? (??? ?? ?? ?????? ???????????) ??? ????? ??????! ?? ???? ? Xi - costs about 3 thousand to fix in the States. In Russia - I don't even wanna guess...
And yes, it does influence the thickness of the spacers.
Now, go and research everything proper, like a good Russian!
????????, ??????! ??? ???????! ???? ? ???? - ????? ???? ??????, ????? ???? ?? ?????? ??? ??????? ?????????. ?????? ?? ??? ?????? ????? ??? ??? ????????.
