Having a 523i is not going to make any difference using 275s or 285s in the rear. Just go ahead with what everyone has been telling you. 245/35/19 in the front and 275/30/19 in the rear. And of course, I have to mention that 285s will look better aesthically.

285 width on a 19inch rim won't rub?
related question, the 172s are very slightly off from the standard e60 offsets. close enough to not need spacers? (18 front, 32 rear, i think)
