The tires will fit but it all depends on what the offsets are on your wheels. I'm thinking front offset > 25mm and rear offset > 30mm.

295.....wow!! I rubbed with 285 with H&R sports, but I had 10mm spacers in the rear. After knocking them out and rolling the right fender, I didn't rub at all, even with coilovers. Based what I heard from Eurorev, you can roll the fenders like 3 times.

thanks for the input guys, i will definitely get my fender rolled tomorrow.
the wheels are HRE 547R, i don't know what the offset is, but they're custom made for E60.
one last question;
is there anything bad with fender rolling??? will everything be ok if i put my stock rims back later on?

It's not going to matter how much fender rolling you do, the 255/30/20 tires won't fit if the offsets are not right. You need to find out what the offsets are.

update....
i just installed the wheels my self today. WOW, 295 in the rear looks aggressive as hell.... but i might have some problem with the front because when i turn the wheels, it is almost touching the wheel well. I haven't got a chance to drive the car yet, i was just testing it in my garage.

Pics of the 295 in the rear? That's what I'm considering for my setup in the rear. Thanks.
