They are Style 167 and they will fit. There are two different offset options for the rear wheel; ET28 and ET17 --> Go for ET17!

167's will fit, but if you mount the same tire sizes that are mounted on the M6 you might have some rubbing issues...
recc'd tire sizes for a non M e60 are: Front 245/35-19" and Rear 275/30-19"
a good reference in this thread:

Thank you for your help on this. I will need to get hold of the people who are selling them to find out if the rear wheels are ET17 as the wheels are sat on a M6 Which has had a interior fire.

ET28 is meant for E60's, but the ET17 sits so much better on E60.

The reps we sell are ET 20 for 19s.
