Any of you wheel gurus know if the M5 E60 wheels fit the 650?
They will fit however they do not fit on the XI models E60 or E61

They will fit but the profile of the tyres will have to be increased.

Ya they'll fit the 650. I think its the same size as M6 wheels. #167s.. and the E63 wheel well and fenders are larger than the E60s.

If you stick them on a 6series, I'd recommend to use 10mm spacers for the rear wheels.
The E63 6 series has for e.g the #167 wheel a rear offset of 17mm, whereas the #167 for the M5 has an offset of 28mm. The fronts have the same offset and are exchangeable no problem.
The rears will not look as good as they will not sit properly in the rear arch without a spacer. You might even need to make sure they clear the suspension, without using a spacer. (should be fine, though)
