Got my new shoes on my '17 740e - 22's!

Staggered 22's - Amazing look...I love it!

22x9 F
22x10.5 R

So much better than my stock 19's.

Got a lot of eyes on my ride home.

Very nice, a form of 7 series 'M' wheels ^

They look lovely, did you have to do anything other than put the wheels on (lower it, use spacers, etc?)

Would love a set of 22s but will likely go for 21s, just about ready to buy a set so this is very timely....

Thanks for posting the pics in any case, a lovely ride, very nice!

Just needed hub rings, new 7's are 66.6, wheels center bore was 74.1.

Other than that, was simple bolt on.

Hopefully you've been eating an extra dosage of burgers to increase your behind's cushion to offset the firmer ride?

Not to take the thread too far off topic but I'll probably stick to 21's personally, I love the way the OP's wheels look and would love some 22s but indeed the ride will likely suffer too much for my gansta princess taste!

Have a service coming up in 3k miles (about 2 months) so will likely switch wheels at that time....still considering other options and ideally need to try a set of 21s on a G series 7 first before forking out the cash!

Safe travels, lovely ride djse60

Actually its a softer ride, due to non-runflats. I've always done this when swapping wheels.

Going to go the other way here. Personally it’s not for me, maybe it’s just the design of the wheels but not my preference on this car. However that’s just my personal preference. I think it would look good with a new front splitter to close that gap to the floor

I agree somewhat. I think it's a difference of tastes between the continents is all. Not to say you don't see cars with really large rims and lowered but it's really rare here.

I'm for a practical balance between looks, too small doesn't look great and practical for the roads we have here. I can just imagine you might easily damn rims of those sizes on our pot holes.

Love it.

I had 22's on my S class and changed the car for an 18 750.

Love the 20s that came with the car but I need more big

Can you share the tire sizes and offsets please if not too much trouble?

Yours is sitting perfect and would like to get it as close to yours as possible.

Thanks.

I will check tomorrow and let you know, I don't remember right now, I use the same 22 inch tires that were on different rims on my 2015 750 Li Individual.
Thanks for the compliment! Haven't driven a whole lot since the swap, but turns heads wherever I go.
