M5 staggered 20"s on beefy looking Pirelli tires... need opinions.
Hello all, new member here on my first post.
So i went ahead and upgraded my 19s into M5 20s. 20x8.5 Front 20x9.5 Rear I need your opinion on these wheels. I decided to with oem tire size so went ahead and bought some Pirelli tires Pzero. 265/35/20 Front 295/30/20 Rear But the ride height is really tall and i feel like the rear tires stick out too much, im afraid that if i lower it the tire might rub. Do all Pirelli tires have this beeffy wall or jst this size? I honestly dont like how the wheels sit on these tires and im having second doubts of keeping them 20s. But before i consider jst sticking with my 19s i want to try a different tire size 245/35/20 Front 275/30/20 Rear Any feedback will be highly helpful and appreciated. Thank you. I will be uploading photos shortly.*** Last photo is of tires i plan to get.. Last edited by big_boss; 04-18-2017 at 10:34 AM.. |

The M5 tire sizes (265/295) are 2% taller than OEM 20" (245/275) tires for F10.
Furthermore your wheels are too narrow for M5 tire sizes which will give a very bulgy tire profile. 265/35-20 has 9.5" as recommended wheel width and 9" as miniumum 295/30-20 has 10.5" as recommended wheel width and 10" as miniumum You have a few options of tire sizes that still are within spec for your wheels: 245/35-20 front, 275/30-20 rear (OEM F10 sizes) 245/35-20 front, 285/30-20 rear (perfectly matched diameters if your car was xDrive) 255/35-20 front, 285/30-20 rear (10mm narrower tires compared to M5 spec) 255/35-20 front, 275/35-20 rear (255/275 staggered setup as M3/M4 use) |
