<![CDATA[Style 162 Wheels for 330xi]]>Hi all,

So I'm looking into picking up a set of Style 162 Wheels for my 06 330xi. The rears are half an inch wider than the front though, and I am worried about this messing with the AWD system. I know these are OEM wheels and they were offered for the xi cars, but I just want to make sure these will be fine with my car before I grab them. Has anyone owned or is currently using these? 

Pic below in case anyone forgot what they look like.

Thanks guys!

Awesome I was under the impression that it was a no no situation.
