Got brand new:
Bridgestone Potenza RE760 Sports:
245-35R20 Front
285-30R20 Rear

Now after two weeks on deciding I think the 20" Staggered Machine Face / Black Pockets / SS Lip Stance "SC5ive" Wheels will look best on my 528xi Imperial Blue.

Now as far as the offset and size:
Found a great deal on these and want to make sure they will sit flush and perfect:

20x9" with 35mm offset and Two 20x10.5" with 45mm offset

Lastly, Springs: Without springs on 20" the car will look like a 4x4 so need to change those same time if not before the wheels. Agree?

H&R Sport lowering spring seem a decent option without braking the bank and give you a lower drop then the Eibachs.

APPROX DROP 1.50" FRONT 1.30" REAR

Price $309 shipped - sound decent or someone on the forums can do better price?

Thoughts? Opinions? Suggestions? Thanks

Front tire sizes dont sound right, may 35 aspect ratio?

You should be at 35 profile front and 30 rear....A 25 offset in front is more flush than 35mm.

I'm sorry typo: yes front are 245/35/20 and 285/30/20 rear.

I say go for it! Let me warn you, the h&r will barely drop it. I have h&r. I would recommend ac schnitzer for a more noticeable drop.

If you're going for sport oe look then the h&r are ok.

obviously not questioning your experience...but from everything I have read I thought HR's were the lowest drop outside of coil overs?

I thought so too, along with the ACS which handle better and better quality but the price is up there. So for the best lowest drop and taking $ in to consideration the H&R make sense. Obviosly coils are but not looking to drop that much on suspension.,

Quick before I order the wheel...would that offset work?

9" 35ET 245/35/20
