Those are nice! But i have a hard time imagining these were from a 335i???

I mean, the front tires are way too big for a 335i let alone an E60.

The tires will rub for sure on a 5 series unless you roll your fenders. It's dangerous that you have your tires rub against your fenders just FYI

Yes really!

People have a hard time fitting 255 tires on 19" to fit a non-m e60.

These Breyton wheels would work fine for the M5. But it seems like you have your heart set on these already, so go ahead and buy them. (just change the front tires to at least 245)
