Opinions on EXE Wheels

While swapping my brake pads I saw these wheels against the wall that just looked "oh soo different than the rest" They're EXE KonKourse

.

While in the shop, I kept staring at them. They have a really really deep dish lip.

What do you guys think? 20 or 22's? I was thinking of just keeping it 20's just like my current set up (stock 4.8is) wheels.

Opinions, comments, ect. Don't be afraid to be nasty with your comments either.

Joy

How much and any chance you can use the BMW center caps?

It says on the website www.exewheels.com that the center cap is easily interchangable with the OEM BMW center cap. If you visit the site it talks about the wheels being particular to the new design of BMWs and made more for BMW, MB, and Lexus. Not that its actually a reason to me wanting them, its the difference between them and soo many of the other must haves.

Question- 20 x 10.5 = $519 each
20 x 9 = $472 each

My current setup is 20 x 9.5 in the front. Would going down .5 inch in the front make a difference? Would my stock tires still fit? They have plenty of tread left and wouldn't wanna swap them if not needed. If I do though, its ok, as it would only be the two fronts that would need changing.

Real nice looking set of wheels those. I would keep with the 20s. 22s can bling the car up. IMO.

i'd go with style 177 over those
but wheels are or should be personal choice, be bold and whatever you like best go for it

My current wheel setup is

20 x 9.5 F = 275/40/20
20 x 10.5 R = 315/35/20

Per EXE Wheels website, I found the rear wheels at the same size fitment my stock wheels are, which I assume would fit perfect with my current set of tires. But the front wheels closest available for my size are 20 x 9.

Would a wheel sized 20 x 9 fit a 275/40/20 tire?
