Found the answer.
5er E60 ff.
M5 8,5x19 vorne 255/40R19 ET 12 13,27
9,5x19 hinten 285/35R19 ET 28 13,27 Kg
6er E63 ff.
M6 8,5x19 vorne 255/40R19 ET 12 13,26
9,5x19 hinten 285/35R19 ET 17 13,26 Kg

M6 offset is lighter than M5 offset(even without spacer and longer bolts added weights).

I weighed my M5 wheels on a calibrated scale last time I had the tires off.
Front: 27.8 lbs (that's 12.61 kg)
Rear: 28.2 lbs (that's 12.79 kg)
