Hey guys, I'm pretty stupid on wheel and tire sizes and what will fit the E60. I currently have OEM 124's staggered on my 545. Looking to get some new bigger wheels. Can someone tell me if these wheels and tires will fit?


Front 245/45r19, Rear 275/40r19

Apparently they're off a 05 745i.

TIA

You'll need 245/35 and 275/30 on 19s.

Calvin is correct and has posted the recommended tire sizes for a 19 inch staggered set. The OP's tires are 2 sidewall sizes too tal and will almost certainly rub. I can tell you that you can get away with one sidewall size taller on an E60 (which is what I run in the winter) but not two.
