My X5 actually came with 22" 742M in gloss black, so I wanted something different for my winter wheels. Still gloss black, but different design and 20" to allow for more tire sidewall, especially considering how well potholes hide underneath snow.

The G4 is an all-weather (rather than all-season) tire so I should have expected decent dry road performance, but I was concerned about the traction & noise impact due to the compromises. They've been quieter and smoother on dry pavement than I was expecting, and the few times I've been able to drive in snow, I've felt very in control. I also intentionally disabled DSC and tried some drifting in a local parking lot, just to see what it was like. Pulling away from a stop in deep snow was no issue and the traction was consistent. No regrets so far. I also can't say enough about the service from my local KAL tire. They even spray painted the balance weights black before installing them so they don't stand out on black rims.

Maybe the specs for the rims you're using? or maybe tire availability?
I went with stock BMW rim (& tire) sizes just to keep everything simple and straightforward. I also started shopping in August so I was able to get what I wanted when I was ready and saved some money (on the rims) at the same time. By the time winter arrived, I noticed rims were about 25% higher and many places were out of stock.

Hi

Considering the price compared to OEM wheels, I'm sure the quality is also nowhere near that of OEMs. They're mostly for winter use and I'd consider them almost consumable/disposable at the price I paid.

I'm looking to get these: https://www.wheelwiz.ca/wheels/repli...90-44mn-35c666 I was just wondering if the OEM lug nuts worked fine for these rims? Or should I get a separate set? I shouldn't need any type of hub centric rings since the bore size is the exact same size as OEM rims, correct? I'm planning to get these as well (I believe they should be correct?): https://www.ebay.ca/itm/253465345049...AAAOSw8j9eaUiH Thanks for reading! |

Looks great. I just got the same wheels in 21x10.5 with 295/35 square winter setup. I think I like these more than the stock 22's.

I have 20x9 in square setup with Michelin PA5 non-RFT 275/45R20 tire. I am using the stickers for the hubcaps. Are you doing the same?

These particular wheels are from a company called Rim Alloy Canada (RAC) and actually came with BMW center caps. (They also came with black caps). |

Thanks for your very informative posts and information. I liked what you did and followed your recipe - art replica 181 from wheelwiz, schrader oem tpms, etc. My 2020 G05 currently has the 22" inch staggered wheels. Is there any need for spacers on the back wheels to push out the 275 wheels back to factory spacing?

A wider stance looks great in the summer but I'm not a fan with winter wheels & tires.

I think I will stick with the original square setup. I really appreciate the original post as I think the art replica 181 wheels are a great look at a good price point. Thanks again. |

I understand the tracking angle, but I’ve not heard a quality spacer is Bad for the hub? Does anyone else have feedback or a professional assessment here? Maybe… r33_RGSport

Finally got my set installed today!
I'm running a 275/45/20 square set up, Michelin X-Ice Snow. I used to run a set of Blizzaks on my old ride, I'll see how these compare. |
