Looks great

Assuming those are "M5" M166 wheels with offset ET28 at the rear, if you throw on a set of 10mm spacers you can get that near perfect fitment on the rear like you get with the "M6" M166 wheels with offset ET17 at the rear. And no, it won't rub! Plenty of members have the M6 versions on their E60s and E61s, and it will give you a similar kind of fitment to the one on the front.

Looking forward to seeing more of those mods
