This thread is a goldmine of information, but I'm just looking for some aluminum,
Looking for a mild wheel/tire upgrade for my E61/530iXT, which currently only has 17" rims.
FS/WTT: Oem style 95 (Updated w/ Photos) - E46Fanatics has an ET 24 offset, which I think is a No Go from reading these threads.
I'm not lowering the car, or extending fender wheels or pushing the limits even close to any rubbing or anything else. If anyone here that has pushed the limits wants to recoup their OEM, let me know.

Here is the update. Vossen sent me the wrong rear wheels. They sent CV5's instead of CV7's. I actually thought about installing the two different wheels. I would definitely be different. I'll keep you'll in the loop. BTW the CV5's were sent in an CV7 box. I'll post if I experience any rubbing. I don't plan on lowering my car that's why I got the 20" so it would fit the wheel wells.

Ok xi gurus I need help with a tire question !! I just bought a set of staggered 20s. There 8.5 in the front and 10 in the rear. I'm looking into ordering a set of 245/35/20 and 275/30/20. The overall diameter is 26.8 in the front and 26.5 in the rear. Is that gonna be ok with the AWD system ??
Thanks in advance

I have an E61 XI and I'm looking at some style 95's front 19x9 ET24 and rear 19x10 ET24 5x120.
Tire sizes are 245/45/19 & 275/35/19 (optional)
I need help from the XI pros in figuring out if they will fit and or what to do to get them to fit.... :-)

They will fit no problem ... but w/ such width & mainly the low offset number it will stick out & protrude the fender well.
