Why it is so hard to get right offset wheels for e60 
These pics are from rear, wheels are 10x20 and tire size 285/25-20 and wheels offset is 11mm. Tape is in millimetres.
Like you can see offset could easily be like 30mm, and it would solve my fender rubbing issue. But manufacturer and seller wont cooperation with me
Is there (usa) something wrong in your info that what offset for E60 wheels should be??
In my german register paper says that 275/30-19 and 9.5"x19" offset should be 32mm, then why I get 10"x20" ET 11mm wheels?

Yes, it definately is too narrow! I love the low profile look though!! Looks like your actually rolling on the rims.
Im going to run these tires out before i get new ones. So what do you guys recommend I do? Is rolling the fenders an easy thing to do (not as a DIY but for me to rely on bodyshops to do)??

Ya if u just bought them they should give you full credit if the tire shop gave you wrong info it's not your fault. I'm going through a situation right now but lucky for me the tire shop is taking care of it. I told the shop that BMW tech told me i'm gonna have brake failure if I keep continue to drive my car like this and BMW will void my warranty. Tire shop spoke to there tech side realize they made a mistake and there fixing it right now

Could you guys who has rubbing problems tell why is it happening.
I am meaning that what offset you have and why did you get your wheels with that offset, just thinking that is it yours (customer) fault that you did order wheels with wrong offset or is it dealers/seller fault and does theirs offset-list have wrong info.
Becouse wouldnt it be nice for everyone (dealers+customers) if we would get right offset wheels, and fixed those offset-lists if those has wrong info.
And those who doesent have rubbing issues could you tell what is yours wheels sizes, tire sizes, and offsets.

Don't exceed 8.5 front and 9.5 rear on an E60 and don't exceed 245 front and 275 rear unless you're driving an M5.
275 it even shouldnt rub like you can see my photos I think there is room even 305/25-20 if offset is correct.
