The cheapest I could find lol called lionhart
20x9 20mm front with 275/30/30
20x11 33mm rear with 325/25/20
Next time I'll bump up to
285/30/20 front
335/25/20 rear if I can find those sizes
Might have to do a little trimming at that point

wowwww thats wide. when i had my E63 painted I had them try to roll the fenders...they couldn't. said the metal is too thick to gain any room without cutting metal. 
i'm maxed at 285mm rear tires with 20x10.5 +30 rear wheels. 285's already rub real bad depending on brand of tire. would love to run more meat, but can't say I don't love the way the wheels fit on my car as is.

I’m shocked, I thought a 325/25 would be it. I have toyo and a 305/25 on a 11 inch wide rim, and I was disappointed to. Toyo is the only brand that makes a 315/25 and I was gonna try that setup. But if 325 isn’t doing it, then maybe a 20x12 rim with that 325/25 is the way to go. It’s been done because I’ve seen it without a wide body kit. Don’t know if any mods where done to make them fit, but I’ve seen it on the road...

Digging around a bit, I found the 11 inch wide rim is the reason that 325 looks smaller then expected. Check out this link... This guy ran 12.5 on the rear without a wide body kit... it look awesome.... But I bet there's no room for error. That offset has to be exact to run a 12.5... Check it out....

That car is sick. I have no doubt about fitting a 20x12.5 or even a 20x13 on the rear and going up to a 345 but everything would have to be SPOT ON!! I think I can go 335 and 285 next go around with my tires and for now since I just bought these rims I'll stick with then for now but I've got my wheels turning in my head for my next setup!! Thanx for that article
Yes, that’s the look I’m after. The one wheel I was considering are a tad too pricey. In 20 or 21 the wheels start at 1,800 per rim. The reason why so pricey is because they custom do the offset. So if you wanted super deep concave on a 8.5 or 9 wide rim you can. I was gonna do super deep concave on the front and back of course rolling a 20x12 or 12.5 in the rear, or maybe 21. I’m real picky when it comes to rim selection so I will roll these vossen for now. But I think we’re thinking alike on this subject. If I find any more info, I’ll let you know...

Yeah I want a deep concave front and rear my rears are nice but fronts are nonexistent custom = money lol
My first choice was around that price but I got my setup now for under $1700 for everything! So I'm happy with that for now
