Default Wheel size question???

I have a 520d M-Sport LCI model November 2007 UK Spec! I am wanting a set of 3SDM in 20" the rears are 10" ET 25 an my fronts will be 8.5" ET 18 an I haven't a clue if this will work? I am lowering the car with a set of H&R Springs from the factory sport one's that she is currently sitting on! Can anyone pls help???!!!


Are tho's good Off Set's?
I want a really concave look so I was wanting aggressive off sets!


Thanks in advance!!

They will fit. It could be still a bit more aggressive actually.

Thanks very much Antti...!!!

So maybe a set of spacers to push them out a little more,
would you happen to know what size would be safe???

First buy the wheels and then check for possible spacers.
What size tyres are you planning? The OEM size would be 245/30 and 275/25, but you could consider 235/35 and 275/30 for more sidewall. This may of course cause rubbing issues, but I don't think so, especially if you don't use spacers.
