Thanks for all the nice comments.
I totally didn't notice the offsets of the wheels. According to the boxes the fronts are +12 and the rears are +19
. I'm planning on getting 245/30/20 and 285/30/20. Hopefully that won't rub. Will 285 look really stretched on a 20x10 wheel?

285/30 will look ugly... and stick to 245/30 in the front... and slam it!

Always nice to get packages with goodies.. Not sure we needed the pic of the boxes but whatever
Tire suggestion, Pirelli P zero Nero M&S. All season tread compound but used the summer only mold pattern. Very good tire, predictable break away characteristics when you really push it. $400 less a set than PS2's and they last a lot longer. Had a set on my 525i and just got another set from tire rack for my 545i with BBS LM's.
PS2's are the best but unless your drive the car so hard it is sliding of the road you never use the performance advantage that you pay big $ for. My .02

Rub with 285/30's? Is it because of the offset? Maybe that's why Enkreuz wants me to use a 295/25 tire
