I was wondering if any one knew if these wheels will fit on a 04 525 and if they do what should the tire sizes be? I was thinking about using these as stocks for my car.

The rears yes, the fronts no (need hub centric 12mm spacer and longer lugs)

If done that way the car might look funny with the front wheels sticking out

Thanks.

Be sure to check offsets, If the front stock is ET35 then a 12 spacer will work. if its higher than 35 then it wont

Hold the phone, I am using my ex M3 BBS LM wheels and they work great. The rears do bolt right on, the front does need spacers and longer bolts (got mine from Turner Motorsport) but I used 20MM spacers with my BBS wheels.

The front wheels will NOT stick out, the spacer just makes up for the incorrect offset. It?s like adding material to the rim (make sense)

For tires I had OEM standard staggered size 18" NON run flat tires installed. Works great. I think it would work fine and look cool.

I wouldn't use the fronts all around. The wider M3 rear will also fit and the staggered set up looks aweseome.

Those arent factory offsets though thats how you're bbs's work, I ran ones just like yours too!

OK but if you find out the offset of the M3 wheel and the offset of the E60 wheel. Assuming you need to add some sort of spacer to the front (I doubt it's the other way round) isn't it just a matter of doing the math and getting the right spacer?
