Are you saying the 18" or even 17" would show it going 49-50 mph? |

Besides, those photos show no literally poke compared to photos of 19" F30s with sizes smaller than that - and 437m is ET29/ET40...not that different. There is a poster that tried 19" 275 rear and had scrapping issues. |

A F30 with 18, 19 or 20" wheels will show the same speed if OEM F30 tire sizes are used (i.e. 225/45-18 and 255/40-18, 225/40-19 and 255/35-19 and finally 225/35-20 and 255/30-20). All these tires have almost identical diameter! |

When you compare a rear 9x20" ET44 F10 wheel with a rear 10x19" ET40 F80 wheel both with 275 tires you will see that the 437 wheels sits 17mm more aggressive. That's a big difference and it's nothing strange that the F10 wheel fits and the F80 wheel rubs even though both have 275 tires with the same diameter. |

I guess I'm of the thought that BMW makes the selection of the 20" easy for us. For my 2017 f36 440ix GC, I'm just going with BMW's OEM 20" M package wheel/tire set. Part # 36112287896 and link is
http://www.shopbmwusa.com/PRODUCT/47...20--STYLE-624M So damn expensive but I managed to get a deal for the near future. I'm new to this mod world but I'm lovin doing it slowly and reading all the expertise you guys offer. Two questions for the experts on this: 1) Other than the increased risk of hitting potholes and thus bending the rims etc.., what's the downside of going from 18" factory OEM to 20" OEM for a new f36? I read "performance" in this thread? Okay, what about it? And 2) Other than looking cool, what's the upside to going from 18" OEMs to 20" OEMs? I was hoping there were more benefits than just the cool factor. Admit I don't know those answers even after reading this thread but I'm reading all over this board to educate myself. |

I bought the car with these on it. While I love the look and everything, I probably wouldn't CHOOSE to go with them in the North East. Probably going to look for a set of 19's to drive everyday on and then use the 405m's for shows and stuff. 20" with run-flats bring a few cringes at times.

I just ordered a set of Vossen VFS-5 wheels through Vossen's black friday deal and this thread basically sold me on going with 20's. When I first got the car, I always told myself I would only get 19's but 20's look way better seeing some pictures.
The wheels (for those who care) are 20x9 +35 and 20x10 +45. I'll be running the typical 235/35r20 and 275/30r20 tire combo since I am xDrive. (both tires are 26.5" tall) Now it's definitely time for some KW coilovers... |

Mounted 20" 437m rims today. Pardon the dirt, it's really muddy around my house at the moment. Mud flaps actually do quite a bit but can't stop everything.
Lowered on Eibach pro kit. |
