19" or 20"?

[kennypmf]

Need advise from bros here. For 520 which size is better?

Am doing sales so travels extensively, so is also concern on tyre price as normally will need to change tyres slightly more than 1 yr.

Re: 19" or 20"?

Your main considerations please?

Looks, ride comfort, price of tyres?

Re: 19" or 20"?

Look = 20"
Comfort = 19"
Price = 19"

Look = 20"
Comfort = 19"
Price = 19"

If truly price sensitive, should just stay with 18".....

Re: 19" or 20"?

agree 110% + comfort + better acceleration too
17" on F10 is too stretch liao

If truly price sensitive, should just stay with 18".....

Looks like 19" is more practical for me then...

I am now on 18" but not on BMW...coz 520 original comes with 17", if upgrade to 18" then might as well stick to 17", right?

Saw a few F10 n F13 on 22"...... really nice =)...... btw i think 20" plus lowering looks good enough for F10 if staying stock....

A big car like E60/F10 only look good on 20" wheels. But you have to compromise on ride comfort and price. No two ways about it.

Re: 19" or 20"?

I thought of upgrading to 20" too but I think I will miss the cushy comfort of 18" stock wheels, so sticking to them for the time being. until I get seriously poisoned................:evillook:

actually, if you do a lot of travelling, I guess the stock rims will give the best comfort. if you want looks and have cash to spare, then go for 20" staggered setup lor. :twisted:

Re: 19" or 20"?

So generally if upgrade then go to 20"....if not then stay with stock....

Rgd the comfort level, 20" will feel more bumpy??

Anyone on 19" can share whether wise to go for 19"?

It's really up to individual... I changed 19" to 20" for my E60 and I love it =) but I have frens who changed from 20" to 19" for their F10 as well.... like mentioned, some even went up to 22".....Cheers =)
