Wow do I feell like a douche for busting your chops now! 
hope you get the car back soon and the splitter fixed/replaced.
Now, how did those wheels kill your fuel pump?! LOL joking
They do look sick! These are at the top of my list now for sure
Hang in there John! Btw did you get a loaner to abuse in the meantime?

My Ride: Alpine White 2006 530Xi (SLD)
Just found some more info on these.
First, here's a listing of all available sizes and offsets for BMW bolt pattern:
19x8.5 ET25
19x8.5 ET35
19x9.5 ET25
19x9.5 ET33
19x9.5 ET40
Can someone (John?
or John? 
) confirm these sizes and if possible, provide weights?
Second, I've spoken to a "reliable source" regarding Xi offsets.
Calton's 530Xi ran the following setup (successfully! Dropped on KW V3s):
Front
19x8.5 ET40 10mm Spacer (effective offset ET30)
Rear
19.9.5 ET45 12mm Spacer (effective offset ET33)
Hence the perfect staggered setup for an Xi with these rims would be 19x8.5 ET35 up front and 19x9.5 ET33 rear. NO SPACERS REQUIRED!!!
I do believe there is still some room to push it more with rolled fenders and get the ET25s in there - front and back, but this is kind of a gamble, so use this information at your own risk.
Notable also, the tire sizes 245/35/19 front and 285/30/19 rear match front and rear overall rolling diameters the best (as opposed to the 275/30/19 in the back), which means that the rear will definitely rub on an ET25 rim. But I think a slightly stretched look on an ET25 rim would look sick too - wish there was an overall rolling diameter calculator for a stretched tire fit though...
E?
And third... errr... ly and finally, its Friday...

well also factor in with all those piroskys you eat, that even with the smaller tires youll still rub
lol in all seriousness though the sizes you are looking for seem they will work with your xi, the other factor is tire brand. Some are taller/wider/shorter than others in the same sizes. Falken tends to run more squared and shorter and Toyo is more round and still short but not as much as falken

WTF? Didn't you just sell a set of 111s?
