trying to decide 20's or 21's

[PRican//M614]

Im trying to decide what size rims to go with. I need all season tires Im assuming run flats bc I have no spare. I like bc forged and also 360 forged. I cant decide 20's or 21's. 21 inch rims of course require 21 inch tires which are super expensive. What are your thoughts.....

21 with a drop is in my humble opinion the proper way to do it. 20s look to small to me after a drop. My rule of thumb is usually "drop an inch (suspension), increase an inch (wheel)".

^^ +1.

21" fitment when dropped is spot on. 20" wheels leave the look of "hmm not quite there". I know a lot of it is personal preference as well though. I know on my car with a 1.2" drop and 21s it just looks like so much goodness going on.

+2 on the 21's.

If your road conditions aren't the best and if its your DD then 20's would be a better option.

21" no question for the look

[Powerbeast]

20" no question about it! Looks great when you lower your car and give you that super aggressive and low stance/look

+4 on the 21's... I was scared.. ordered 20's.. but I was lucky enough to change them before they went into production... In all but a track situation, I dig the 21's.

Before i was against 21,but now when tried michelin NON RFT..man,go for 21!!

[darryl865]

I'm on board with the 21's. My order for 21's should be about finished next week. After doing some research on the board and seeing other members dropped with 21's it was a no brainer for me.

You going to be selling the OEM wheels? Let me know

[twm6]

seeing how everyone is getting 21"s makes me want to get them as well, can anyone steer me in the right direction on the specs of 21"s for my 13 coupe? Looking for something super concave and want to run beefy tire...

That's my setup. I'm running a 21x9.5 with a 255 up front and a 21x12 with a 325 in the rear. Beefy as fuck rears.

My 14 is a performance package which is lowered already. So do I just get the 21? And they fit on the factory rims?

Not sure I understand your question. 21 is the size of the rim so your factories won't be part of this. Also I'm assuming the factory lowering and performance package you are referring to is the Comoetition Package. This drop has been discussed many times on the forums and it is either not noticeable or not existent at all despite BMW advertising it as present some times.

21's fit the profile of the M6 much better for proportion, however if you plan on going with a track setup look like I have with a nice concavity then def. 20's IMHO.
