My Ride: 08 535xi
there are many websites that sell oem replica, is that what you are looking for?
Either way. You need an ET of 35-40.
It is possible to run a staggered set up (wider in rear) but I went with square set up for my 08 535xi. You just have to make sure that your wheel/tire diameter is very very close to the same all the way around. If you run wider wheels/tires in the rear, the tires will have to be lower profile.
I am running 245/40/19 on my car.
Hope this helps.

If I may: 16", 17" and some 18" wheels on E60 cars use ET20 wheels. I can't speak for the post facelift (LCI) model but I can confidently say that '05/'06 E60's would use ET20 wheels unless staggered or 19" and above.
