Hi søta bror

How's the 20" drive compared to 19"? A lot harder? Do you have DDC or sports/normal dampers?

My words exactly, I had the 19" sport wheels painted Black Metallic on the inside to help save time cleaning in there. It worked.

Same rolling diameter as far as I can see.

My ideal setup would be a mix of M sport front and back and SE sides because you need dark wheel arches with the X3's wheels. I much prefer the side profile of the SE to the M Sport in any colour except black. The SE angle at the bottom compliments the sculpting on the side panels too like this



rather than this



Just my opinion and many people will disagree
These 22" I believe fill the gaps nice in AW, so its bigger rims, maybe bigger tyre, blacked rims, better offset?

The 19" 309 looks very good and the rear wheel, is very wide but put the 20" 310 and the rear wheel is not as great as in the 19", but looks ok

How is the 20" ride compared to the 19" ride.

I would really want to know (and maybe the rest of the forum) the difference in how hard the ride is. Especially with Dynamic Damper Control wich I have on my order...

If the ride is MUCH harder I won't consider it, but if it's just a small difference, I would consider the 20".

*Very* Nice.. those are the wheels I would love to get.. the dealer advised me against getting them as it would ruin the ride.. so would be interested in your view on the ride quality with them on.. not sure what the roads are like there compared to here

I like the wheel but I couldn't ever justify the cost of the wheel, the cost of the super low profile tires, and the greatly increased risk of tire / wheel damage because they are so low profile.

I don´t have DDC. I was a bit worried bout the ride quality, but it´s just a small difference. I recommend the 20"
