Post some pic ... granted the definition of 'sticking out' is not the same to all but for comparison take a look the pics on this thread:

https://5series.net/forums/dealer-pu...12/#post195085

It's an xi/awd model using staggered RWD wheels on 18x8 front w/ ET20 offset & 18x9 ET32 rear, from pic #8 you can see with 8" the front wheel/tire already poking out (for some maybe not) and not bad for 9" on the rear w/ ET32 on pic #5.

Take a look another thread -> https://5series.net/forums/e60-parts...ew-pics-15597/ on the other hand an xi/awd model using 19" RWD setup on 19x8.5" ET12 front & 19x9.5" ET28 rear as oppose to the setup I'm using same size just different offset.

The wheels we sell for Xi models are +35 ET.
That is perfect for fitment:

Thank you! I wasn't brave enough to cut into the headlights. I shipped them to Umnitza for the install. They may be able to point you in the right direction though
