I hope this helps people with 20" wheels find a decent
winter tire that fits under the fender without sticking out in the rear.
I may get spacers to try on the fronts as well. But i know they will
stick out a bit. may need some fender flares all around to match.

2017 Rex Deka with Stock Staggered 20" wheels.
Been going through the rears every 8-10k mi
With the factory style Ecopias and the
Bridgestone Potenza 195/50 R20 tires.
Both of those are TERRIBLE in the snow :eek:

Cue the Winters!

Have not seen a range hit other than the cold.
Sears Auto Center did the install with no issues.
They stick pretty good to the road in the wet, But
have not seen snow yet. Will post an update on
treadlife later.
 
Greetings.

Any issues w/the 215/45/20 tires on the BMW i3? I suspect the rears were no prob on 5.5 rims but how about trouble mounting on 5.0 fronts?

Lastly, once mounted, any rubbing on fronts without spacers?

Thanx for your feedback! JJ
