Normally i have no issues choosing wheels for my cars. Its easy, I look for a style I like, research available sizes and offsets, place an order and get them installed. This car HAD to be special though, I can't seem to decide what I want on it. If I knew I'd run into this I would have just ordered an S (and probably still would have changed the wheels, lol)

So far I ordered a set of cheaper "holdover" wheels, 20x10 Privat NETZ, but I didn't like the finish in person so I listed them for sale.

Then I wanted to try Concept One, I went with the CS5.0 in 20X10.5 +45. Issue here is the +45 doesn't clear the front suspension, contacts the steering knuckle. These probably would clear with just a 5mm spacer, but I don't like using spacers. Soon to be for sale as well.

So now I'm off to order a third set of wheels for this vehicle, figured I'd get some suggestions from anyone who has already changed wheels on their M37/56

I prefer 20x10 all around not just due to mine being AWD but because I don't like the shallow look of most front wheels in staggered sets. With that said, throw me some suggestions, and absolutely positively NO Vossens. I just don't like 'em.

They aren't bad but I really don't want darker colored wheels on a white vehicle.

I'm really looking more or less for pics of M's with aftermarket wheels to give me an idea of what style I'll like before I order another set.

finikM35: Weds Kranze Cerberus, very nice wheels and also big bucks , but its a Japanese high quality, and for that you have to pay !!!

Altered: so many choices all depends on your budget,you can buy a set of 4 wheels for $1000 or only one wheel for $1000+
Also what you like more mesh style , five-six spoke, step lip, regular lip no lip, concave

What are the opinions on these wheels? Also, would these be able to go on my M?

not a bad fitment. Are these still a "hold-over"?

Any plans for suspension work?

I'll use these for winter, come spring I'll buy something lighter-colored as I'm really not a fan of dark wheels. The car is actually dropped on Eibach springs, I do not recommend them for people who want to go low at all. Considering this car was purchased for winter use I'm going to leave it be.

Wow camber. So help me understand these wheels. Are they conical in shape to support full contact patch with that much camber?

Not at all, they are 20 inches in diameter both inside and out. They look conical because they are designed for a reverse mount of the tire, that is to provide the "lip". I actually know DaMayor, his wheels are always impressive but those are not a good idea for my daily as I work in some rough areas of the city.
