ACE Alloy I have had before....on a Maxima though...its a "cheaper" wheel, so on the 6er... ehhhh...kinda like putting on a tuxedo... and then some black chuck taylors... Can you get away with looking decent...sure, wheels do look damn good though...similar to the Advant Garde series...(then you would be putting a pair of Steve Madden's on with your tux..) which if you are going to spend almost 1300..I would look into but that being said...IN MY HEAD..I want a 3D Carbon rear diffuser... IN REALITY...I am about to purchase a replica v style diffuser and not give two F's about what anyone thinks..because at the end of the day... you have to see your car every day and if you are happy...is all that counts...

Oh and if 150- 205 a tire is in your price range... look into the Nitto NT 555G2, much better ride and excellent wet and dry handling with a longer tread life than the Sumitomo's.
Also if you are going to stagger.. I would also consider 20x9 (offset 25-28) f with a 245/35/30 and a 20x10.5 (offset 37-40) with a 285/30/20 for the rear.. Hey if we going to spend the money, i say at least be extremely happy with our purchase... i hate spending a good amount of cheese and get mediocre...

I went the cheap route on rims and got Hankook tires evo 2 We will see what happens Worst case scenario I sell the rims and fix the originals Houston Roads are bad so I didn't want expensive replacements

Hey Everyone!
Not to jack your post, but I just purchased these rims and tires for my 2010 BMW 650i. I put them on tonight and rode around the block. It sounded awful, like grinding metal... So how the hell do I find out if they really "fit?!" I was told these were take-offs from a M6. Rims are: 20" Advanti DST HY Hybris. Tires: Yokohama They went on like a glove. But as soon as I heard the grinding and rubbing, I was scared to go any further. Only drove about 100 feet. Any suggestions? |

To understand how a wheel will "fit"...requires its width, offset, and "size"...you only gave us its size (20"). We also need the tire's width, aspect ratio, and size...you only gave us its size (20") If you don't understand what offset is and aspect ratio...just do a simple google/internet search...it's a much discussed topic. Offset is important because it is part of the equation of the wheel & tire's (width) measurement to determine if the wheel/tire combo will rub against suspension and/or body parts. In the chart below...you can see what the wheel specs are of many old & new BMWs...note how some have a low wheel offset and some have a high wheel offset. Many BMW wheels are the same size...but if their wheel offset is different...they can't be mounted on another model that has the opposite type of offset range...the wheels will either stick out too far...or stick in too much and rub suspension parts and stuff.
