I found a used M5 OEM RIMs in good shape/price. Question: Would the M5 RIMs fit on the E60 with no problems? Thanks

285 = more rubbing than watching Jessica Alba shower behind a double mirror.

actually that depends on what suspension you are running..some will go with 285 for some extra protection, without rubbing...

Gents, I appreciate your help as I don't know much about RIMS and that's why I'm looking for your help. So can put 285s on the back without rubbing with four passengers in the car?

Also what is the difference between the original M5 RIMS and the M6 offsets for the back?

I'm going this weekend to check the wheels and make sure they don't have any curb damage. Wish me luck!!
