Will style #177 fit E70 sport pkg?

Looking at a winter set up and like the style #177:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/20-20...QQcmdZViewItem

I read where they say it won't fit, but I figure the people here would know very well what does and doesn't fit.

If not, do we have a list here on the forum which shows what BMW style wheels will fit the E70?

Thanks!

i think style 177 can be bought in 18" wheels for a winter setup. Anyone else looked into this? I'm considering it as well for a 2008 X5

Those wheels are listed as

20" 20x9.5"


But the OEM 20" set up 10" front and 11" rear - so without any other information I would say your offset would be messed up by using these wheels. That is, you may not clear the brake calipers...

That is probably why the warning is there.

Cheers,

Yes, that is correct, but if you look at the width of the wheel compared to the width of the 20" wheel the is being sold, you'll see that they don't match.

i'm confused... are you saying that you can 'not' get the style 177 for winter tires if you have 20" OEM wheels on now with the sport package?
