You didnt specify yr but I think they're all the same. Mine came with 123 18x8 ET 20.

20mm is stock. if you're upgrading to 19" as long as you use the recommended and appropriate rubber you woint have an issue. For rear is ok I have ET14 on mine and they don't rub although they look like they would. The suspension goes up and in not straight up so its' fine.

its a 2006 530i

Thanks Guys! really appreciate the info!

One more question, so if the offset is 20 in the rear, and i put a 5mm spacer, does that increase the offset to 25, or decrease to 15? i know the wheel will stick out further but how does that effect the offset rating? + or - ?

Thanks

Spacers lower the offset so in your case it would lower it to 15.
