Does the F10 wheels fit on XI 5 series? I love these Style 351M's...

Thinking it won't fit, Im sure the tires will need to be custom versus the stock F10 on a e60.

Any insight?

bore size is the same, IIRC the F10 offsets are higher than e60 rwd offsets, so they might work.

I think the wheels could work with different tires. The oe f10 tires are 1 profile size taller. so the fronts are 245-40-19 and the rears are 275-35-19. So my fronts rub a little now
