MRR H10 wheels 20"

What do you think of this quick snag-it overlay of the wheels? I wanted some m3 wheels style 220 but they sold and I just decided to get these.

It's weird. The photo of the wheels alone look good. But on the X3 mockup they look really bad--like a sliced pizza or Trivial Pursuit game piece.

Wheels are very subjective. That is why there are so many different ones to choose from.

I see what you mean. Must be because of the machined-face and lighting. I hope in real life they look good.

What width and offset will you get? Those parameters will make or break the looks! I like the concaved look.

Well I didn't go staggered or really wide width. I have been replacing 275 wide tires on my coupe and I usually spend $1200 a set then $600 every 3,000 miles for new rears.
So with this set I found affordable all season Pirelli tires 245 width on the 8-1/2 wide wheel. This is the oem front or square setup. The difference is the offset of 35 instead of oem 38/48.

Hey here is an iPhone picture after mounting the wheels. I'm going to charge my Nikon and find a nice place to take photos.

This is really nice! Do you remember wheel and tire specs?
Based on your posts, I got 20x8.5 +35. Tires were 245 but not sure on the aspect ratio.

I wanted to give some extra cushion so I kept the aspect ratio the same even though I went up a size of wheel. So it is 245/45/20.

IMO the wheels do not go with that car, its looks like u delivering pizzas.
They are kind of very basic looking.

I'll post up some pics of the wheels you should have gone for later

I think they are classy and go well with the X3. It looks like it could be factory but is detailed like an aftermarket wheel.

I figured I would use snag it editor to lower the car. I wanted to lower it but just never did. I wanted to post it earlier but instead went to my playoff game and forgot about it, until now.
