[QUOTE="Zul, post: 430361, member: 173"] Hi ice pop, The car ori rims was 19" before I change to HRE C20-3 piece rims. It was an improvement in term of handling from the ori rims because the HRE rims is among the lightest rim around. Then after few months I change to the Hamann Edition Race 20" 3-piece rims. The rims is havier than the C20 and ori 19". It affects the starting/pick-up of the car but I can still spin the rear wheel up to 2nd gear. It is 'harder' but i can live with it, not bad for a performance car. BTW I have the E60 530I if I want comfort with some performance. Don't think there is much improvement in handling. I think it is more of aesthetic than performance gain with the 20" but I don't think U will lose any performance significantly. Sorry, the ori 19" is well kept in a box, not planning to sell it. the HRE 19" now on my E60 with a spacer to fit on the E60. IMO if you want to upgrade/change always go for good quality than taiwan made because I'm sure the taiwan made is inferior in quality and heavier. The max U should go for E92 M3 is 19" if U still want to maintain the comfort and performance, 20" is mainly aesthetic/cosmetic. The tyre of the 20" won't rub the fender but it rub the plastic cover of the fender, with my set-up I can hear the sound of the tyre rubbing the plastic fender cover on max turn of the wheel.
