I was just wondering if an 19x10 wheel for the back would fit without rub or any problems on a stock E60. I'd really appreciate it if you guys could let me know because it would determine if I go for a staggered fitment of 19x8 in the front and 19x10 in the back or if I have to go 19x8 for both front and back.

You'll get help from the experts if you specify wheel offset and tire size

The offset for the 19x8 is +25mm and for the 19x10 is +30mm. The tires to go with the 19x8 would be 225/40R19 and the 19x10 255/35R19. I just threw in a random speed rating.

Recommended tire size is F:245/35/19 and R:275/30/19. What model E60?

It an '06 530xi. Well the rims I want to get are Tenzo GF-7's and on the site where they sell 'em they give you a recommended tire size and the two I posted were the ones recommended. I just need to make sure that I don't get any rub in the rear. I still want a smooth ride, no stiffness and not have to worry about tire rub. I need this right away cause I'm ready to buy the rims, just deciding on size.

Why not??? BMW listed OEM Style 124 as an available staggered option.

Alright thanks a lot. That's all I needed to know. I wish I could get it staggered but oh well. Thanks for the help guys. Now, once I get my car back from the dealership, I'm going to put some 19's on that sh*t!!!
