20x11 all around?
Not sure if anyone tried this before but, I'm interested in running some vossen cv3 20x11 all around on my e55. Any thoughts or recommendations?

Not a chance. Most I think you could get away with is 10" front at around a +35 ET. Running silly aggressive fitments on W211's is always hard as our cars are so soft so there's way too much compression to keep the wheel off the fender, especially on the front.

I'm currently running 20x10's et35 with 15mm spacers in front.
Really? Wow! So you're at 10" +20? Pics?

So if you're clear on the outside currently, you'll need 11" +32 to be at the same spot on the face. I just don't see there being that much room on the inside before you hit the knuckle. 'So yeah, how much room on the inside currently?

You're running a pretty stretched tired up front to make that 20x10 set up work, most guys on here don't agree with that look so that's probably why they didn't think it could work. Depending on how much room you had on the inside of the wheel a 20x11 may be possible but I don't think you'll like how the car handles with something that wide up front specially with how much you're going to have to stretch the tire to make it work. If you're going for all looks then go for it!

When you stretch a tire it can become unseated if you hit a bump or take a turn too aggressively, or just don't run enough pressure in the tire.
