20 series, are you series? You're going to bend the wheel in a week tops, man. Since you are lowered as well, I highly think rubbing will be an issue. I think 295 is a bit too big for 10.5, 285 seems more ideal IMO.

Why do you say i'll bend the wheel? Im pretty sure iForged wheels (or any other forged wheel) dont bend that easily my friend. I had 19'' iforgeds before with 275/30's and hit some SERIOUS pot holes and stuff and no damage what so ever. No i had my fenders rolled so no rubbing

If you look at my sig, I also have iForged. You can have the strongest wheels in the world, but when you have a heavy enough impact, it will give. Your car weights roughly 3600 lb, you do the math.

Have you ridden in a car with 20s before? I've been in an SUV with 26s on 20 series profile, god damn, and I thought my 35 and 30 series tires are bad.

You may have your fenders rolled, but just to let you know, rubbing can occur at more than one spot..

I think 20s is too big and looks tasteless on a 3series, but more power to you if you can pull this off with no issues.

they'll be 25's not 20, i can get 30's too. Hamann's 335 is on 20's and looks great, for the E90 20's are tasteless but for E92 they look good. Those are both 20's below

20's do look very nice on those cars. Are you also going to get the brembo brake kit to fill in the wheels?

If you buy them for me then sure!!! But no not ANYTIME in the near future, i dont have 6-8k to drop on some brakes and even if i did i think i would have put it towards an E92 M3 or a turbo upgrade kit once they eventually start coming out for the 335 in the future.

Same as my old iForgeds, flat black but with chrome lips this time, not polished lips. I thought about doing brushed aluminum but something about doing that didnt seem right in my mind. Its too bright for a black car i dunno or maybe its just me, plus they look too much like a chrome wheel, which the absolute last thing i want to look like. So i figured i stay with flat black, i dont like gloss black at all what so ever.

295/25/20 on 20x 10.5 is a good fit, like technik's 330i

Samir's 330i rear fenders were stretched. That wheel/tire setup would not fit an OEM E90.

I meant the tire was a good fit on a 10.5" wheel, not on the car itself

take it to a body shop and pull the fenders out then you'll be able to fit whatever you like. (within reason)

The official word is now 20'' by 10.5 essens on 285/25/20's. I just hate those Pirelli's that come in that size tough....such ugly tread. I got my fenders rolled a few months back so i should be fine.
