i assume you're lowering it? if you tell the vendor you're buying them for an e60 they can gather all that for you.

Should be able to go 20X8.5 in front and 20X10.5 in the rear - no problem, just get the correct tires 245/35/20 front and 275/25(or 30)/20 rears. Very aggressive drivers will tear up about any rims, but at least these won't rub

I would recommend a 10.5 rear and 275 tire, its going to be stretched pretty bad. If you're going to run 10.5 you'll need atleast a +32 offset and 285 tires.
