2011, F10 520d M-sport with 20" BBS CH-R
My 2011 - F10 520d M-sport with BBS CH-R wheels from Baanvelgen
9X20 front and 10,5X20 rear with Michelin Pilot Super Sport 255/35 and 295/30 tires. It feels like at new car compared to the std 18" runflats.

After polish and wax, 2 layers of Swissvax Blauweiss.

Great wheels, and I'd like to see it lowered.
Any more pics to see how flush the wheels are?

Did you notice the car get sluggish under acceleration because of the bigger wheels. I just put 19s on my 520d from 17s and it kinda feels it lost some of its low end torque. Wife says otherwise so maybe I am just imagining it

The color is Carbon Black, atleast thats what it's called in Europe. I think it's only available with the M-sport exterior package. Quote:
EDIT: This is the weights for OEM 18" and BBS CH-R 20" Style 350M 8x18 Front 245/45R18 ET 30 11,40 kg 9x18 Rear 275/40R18 ET 44 11,90 kg BBS CH-R 9x20 Front 255/35R20 ET 29 12,6 kg 10,5 Rear 295/30R20 ET 35 13,21 kg so 1,2 kg more in front and 1,3 kg more on the rear wheel. Not a whole lot more weight but of course there is the bigger tire too so maybe 2 kg more on each wheel. But i think maybe its possible to notice it between 17" and 19". Could be more difference in weigt there than on my wheels. http://felgenkatalog.auto-treff.com/ On this page the weight differene between OEM 17" and OEM 351M 19" wheels is about 2,5 kg + tire about 0.5 kg = ca 3.0kg pr wheel. Don't think you are imagining it. Thanks

What is the best way to lower it? Only different springs or coilovers? Dont want to loose the EDC option. Dont want it "Blodsenka" in english "?"

If you want to keep the EDC, you need to drop it by just changing the springs.
But all the pics I've seen of such drops, it looks like a mild drop of 2-3cm. So I doubt it wil get you into trouble in snow or over speedbumps. Coilovers will change the EDC dampers too, so that function won't work anymore.

Looks quite agressive. It will probably be absolutely flush with the fenders if the car is lowered about 2-3 cm like you suggested. Now the rims are flush.

Dampers = shock absorbers
Springs = springs So by coilovers I mean a height adjustable lowering setup that consists of both springs and dampers. Like this from KW.

Looks good! Definitely could use some lowering springs. That will not only give you a more aggressive stance but will drastically improve your handling and still allow use of EDC!

Wow! Double!?! Yes, in that case, I would say you made a very wise choice 520d.

Nice setup. I am considering these as well.
Do you have Titanium version or are they silver? |

Did you also make a wheel alignment after lowering?
