Just wanted to share a few photos of my 535d x-drive with the new rims. It runs on stock suspension (no EDC or Adaptive Drive) lowered with H&R springs. Tires are PZeros 245/35 up front and 275/30 in the rear. The rims are 20" (8.5" fronts, 9.5" rears). The color in the photos is very close to real life - they're light graphite and slightly matte. To my eye it's a great combination with light or very dark paints

Despite a rather crude setting for the photos, I'd Love to hear your thoughts. A proper photo shoot will follow once all mods are done.

Thx!

I like how the finish turned out on those new CI-R wheels, not to dark. And they look great on your car.

Did you ever consider the wider 20x9 and 20x10.5?

Thank you, guys!

Remmib, yes, I did consider wider rims. I turned the idea down, as I was afraid of too much stretch that would result from using tires in BMW-approved sizes (245f, 275r). I did not want to go for tires outside of BMW's approval

WOW

I think you made my life with your photos much easier Was trying to get the Vorsteiner VV-F 102 for my 535ix, but that's impossible to get the OK from the technical inspection authority in Switzerland. I thought the CI-Rs will be to filigree for a F11. But since I saw your photos - they are back in race ! Looking forward for more photos.

Can't wait for the 20" to be released here in the states. Definitely a potential wheel on my list!

No, they're flowformed cast, and they costs a lot less than the FI.

Yes, they're flow-formed, not forged. And so far only come in 20".

Do you have following offsets:

Front: 33mm
Back: 44mm

?

I'm considering to go for the 9x20 ET25 and 10.5x20 ET35, but I'm not sure if that will fit without any modifications...

Hi,

According to BBS, the offsets are 32 in front (8,5x20") and 40 at the back (9,5x20").

The wider rims should also fit, however my BBS sales rep advised that "in certain circumstances, e.g. with lowered suspension, some modifications to the vehicle body may be required". As I did lower my car and wanted to avoid any surprises, I happily settled for the narrower set.



Hope this helps

Sorry - my mistake. I meant: Front ET32 / Rear ET40.

It seemed that BBS did not have wider setting up to 10.5"

Yes, if you want the slightly aggressive fitment.
