That's what I thought too. When I asked my service advisor, he said they are the same... I would like to hear from someone who has the BMW service manual. Or those who swap wheels during summer and winter, do they adjust the camber/alignment afterwards?

My E70 came with the 20s and I swapped to 19s each winter. I didn't adjust anything.

You should consider the wider fender flares to finish off the look now that you have those 20's. They are a very inexpensive mod but make a world of difference.
