OKay I own a 06' M35x and I know that the factory specs are 18x8. I'm looking at MRR HR3's and the size I was thinking about getting for my car was 20 X 9.5. I notice alot of M's are going with 8.5 in the front is that because its a staggered or will it rub in the front if it was 9.5?

Welcome to the VIP Forum!

I'm pretty sure that's reall going to come down to what offset you are looking to go with. Any ideas as to what that may be?

You ain't gonna be VIP unless you do some fender work.

You will need to do some measuring.

Yes, 20x9.5 HR3's will work all the way around.

Pretty much all the MRR stuff is gonna be relatively conservative for you car. 35et might be better than stock but you're not gonna get the agressive fitment typically associated with VIP.

Go with the 9.5s and plan on doing a roll and possibly getting a set of spacers to get the fitment right after you've run them without and do all your measurements to see how much of a spacer you'll need.
