22s and tires have arrived.

Still waiting on one, seems like it’s always something with shipping companies. Will be here in the morning. Appt scheduled at 10 to get these mounted and balanced. Wheels are 22x10 and 22x11 +40 front and +35 rear. Tires are atturo 275/35/22 and 315/30/22. Excited to see how much better this will feel driving after having the oem 19s. I’ve also got a set of KW coilovers on their was as well. Will I need to run spacers with these offsets after it’s lowered to keep the wheels flush? It is on a 16 35i msport.

Nice! I would first put them on and see how they sit - chances are you won't need spacers. However, from my personal experience you may need 5/15mm spacers front/rear to get them flush. The fender flare on our x5 is protruding most at highest point and then fades - so everyone sees flush a bit differently and depending how you look at it. If you match tires to the farthest point of fender flare - then some may consider them sticking out. I personally like that a bit aggressive look (it's what BMW X5 is famous for after all)

P.S. Please give your review of KW coilovers! I think they really make handling better and reduce body roll a lot. Car feels more sporty with them, but I would love to hear your comparison with stock suspension

The wheels look good! The tires look familiar! My Atturos balanced on my Vossens with minimal weights. You’ll probably want spacers with the coilovers to get flush. The oem offsets are really quite conservative.
