Wheels for e70 4.8i

Whats my options?

Currently running on 21” and feels to “big”. Thinking on downsize, whats people opinion? Limited on budget, but looking for something reasonable looking though...

Thanks

19” may be possible (large brakes may obstruct), otherwise 20”.  Somewhere like Alloywheels direct will give you examples and style numbers to hunt for on line and cheaper than brand new.

The outer diameter will not change, just the sidewalls will get deeper.

Thanks.

Was looking to get an original m sport 20” set. But, most of them i see on eBay either over £1500. (I cant really afford that at the moment)

Or what can i see for reasonable price, all got repair or still needs hairline crack welding up.

This scares me a little... not sure what to do.

I really like the normal 20” m sport set

Definitely leave anything with cracks alone!  Rewlded or not, I would be wary of putting those on a 2T vehicle as the reason for the crack could be anything.

Original wheelsets are very expensive - new they can be over £3k new hence the high eBay prices.

There are copies out there, some are good, but unless a good set comes up you will probably have to buy some that need a bit of refurb work - which isn’t expensive - and then use those.  20” tyres won’t be cheap either and you need to read the debates on whether or not you buy the proper ‘*’ marked tyres.  They will be £800+ a set of four.
