Hell yeah man thanks looking forward to the pictures. Please tag me in your post.

Here is a first picture, I will snap some more another day. Really happy with the outcome. I could easily add 5mm spacers, but I'm fine with this for now.

Yeah that looks good if you think you have room for 5mm spacer for the front I'll just order the 10.5 ET30 and be done with it.

The rears will be the 10.5 ET27 and worst case I can always add a spacer to the rear.

Please tag me again when you snap some more. Thanks man

If you are ordering the same size wheels all around and running the same sized tires - I would use the spacers to give you the stance you want. This would allow you to do a full rotation to greatly extend tire life. If you use different offsets front and back - you won't be able to do that.

Just a thought.

Will do this weekend.
I sure you will need spacers with ET27 and 10.5" width btw.
btw, sorry to OP for hijacking his 22" wheel post..
But offsets pictures might help, despite mine being 20" wheels.

275x40 tires on 20x10 ET30 wheels up front
315x35 tires on 20x11 ET22 wheels at the rear
I'm considering adding 5mm spacers

Those are 20x10 on the front with a 30 offset? OEM is 40 and I was looking to run a 20x10 with 40 offset, but those look pretty close to flush how I like them. Do you have pics from other angles by chance?

So hard to tell till you get them on. I don't have (or want) the flares, so making sure they don't stick out is a little harder since I don't have that room to spare.

My wheels are ready sooner than expected . What do you guys think Lionhart LH-TEN or Toyo Proxies ST III ?

Looking at :
Front: 22x10.5 with 295/30/22
Rear: 22x12 with 335/25/22

I vote Toyo only because I've never really liked any of the LHs that I've had in the past. To be fair, I never really hated them either.

According to a tire calculator, that's .4 inches difference in the overall diameter. The rear being smaller diameter. Will this cause problems or no?

Looks Freaking awesome.

This was the recommended layout for staggered 22 by more than one wheel and tire shop..
Also multiple x5 owners running this setup. I don't have mine yet but should in next few weeks the current owners can chime in on any issues.

Keep in mind that once you lower the car, camber pushes the upper part of the wheels inwards. I ran 15mm spacers in the tears and it was flushed with the fenders arches. Now I'm lowered, I'm running 20mm in the rears to keep flush to the arches 😜

Eager to see the mounted pics. I love those wheels.

Here ya go bro. Not the best pictures but took some right after I got them mounted. Have to say steering is a lot better now. Its almost like the thicker tires on the 19's made it harder to turn the steering wheel. All the wheels are flush with the fenders. Tires are smooth and not loud as other have noted. Only driven about 30 miles but loving the setup so far. Pictures don't do just for the color of the wheels. Its graphite metallic appearance very nice.
Now just gotta get my CF front lip on this weekend to be all set with the exterior for now.

Look good!

Before and after shot of rear shows how more much better it looks with wider tires. Lot more well rounded and mean.

What are the Offsets?
