Yep, they fit. Here's @cy07's thread. He uses the same size you mentioned. http://www.bimmerfest.com/forums/sho...d.php?t=797092

The wheels look pretty solid. What color is your X5? What color VFS2 are you getting?

I'm actually really keen on Opasha's style of rims, but I gotta wear down the RFTs that came with the X5 (19") first... otherwise, wifey will literally make me sleep on the couch for being a wasteful sod. Sigh, the joys of being married.

do you know how it lowered？ spring or link?

opasha · 10-01-2014, 02:15 AM

No, spacers are not required. He used spacers on his because his particular wheels (Hartge Classic 02) required them I think. Make sure your center bore is 74.1 mm for all four. PM @r33 for more info about wheel specs because he has the same size as well that you're going for. Your car is going to look similar to this Hamann F15, which looks nice:

I'm sure it will. My car is an X-Line and the 22's make it look really aggressive/nicer. @cy07 has an X-Line as well.

Also, regarding lowering...I have no clue. I wouldn't lower it personally. I didn't lower mine. @cy07 didn't lower his. However, @r33 did lower his. Up to you.

FusionBlitzz · 10-01-2014, 02:49 AM

is that car lowered??

The white one? I think so. Probably about the same height as r33's car.

So funny

. Same thing at my end. Doing small mods she would not notice and preping her for bigger wheels

Do you know the exact offset ,call bosses in the morning
They recommend 9.5 and 10.5 I don't really know

r33_RGSport · 10-01-2014, 02:37 PM

@FusionBlitzz, just PM you with the price.

I wouldn't go 9.5 and 10.5. Maximize while you can.

Standard staggered setup for 22's is 22x10 front, 22x11 rear. @r33 and @cy07 have 10.5 front, 12 rear. Really is up to you. Mine are 22x10 all around. I'll be upgrading to 22x11 for the rear eventually.

FusionBlitzz · 10-01-2014, 07:36 PM

Vossen said their wheels for 22inch, offset only comes 22x10.5+20 22x12+25

compare to the oem option 21 inch wheels 21x10+38 21x11.5+40

will it too aggressive????

The front would be too aggressive. I wonder why they can't cut down the offset to +30 on the front. That's 10mm difference, it will stick out.
While the rear 3mm difference is perfectly fine.
Let me find out from them tomorrow.

Yeah...way too aggressive. Mine are 22x10 offset 40 all the way around. Standard for staggered 22x10 is 40 offset with 22x11 being 35 offset. I personally wouldn't recommend it. That doesn't make sense though. Why would the offset of the front be less than the offset of the back???

I think you have the offsets reversed. Same for the 21's it's 40 front, 38 rear.

There are very few staggered set ups for 22s that meets the load index and tolerable diameter.
In brand tires, I believe I could only find Pirelli Assymetrico 295/30, 335/25.
Toyo and Lexani do offer cheaper options and sales people have "assured" me of their quality.

I've ran Lexani tires on 2 or 3 cars with no problems. They are owned by Nexen. I know Nexen isn't the best brand but they've been in the business for several years. Just stay away from Fullway and Delinte.

A lot of shops around here stock a ton of Lexani tires. I don't think they'd wanna deal with the headache of returning customers because their Lexani tires are trash.
