I see many members with 19 inch miro' s m6 replicas. No doubt style 167 is one of the hottest looking oem wheels for bmw.

I just found ad for these OEM M6 wheel/tire package for sale. I was wondering if it is possible to install OEM M6 style 167 wheels along with its m6 stock tires on E60s (non m5s) without any rubbing issues.

Tire sizes are 255/40R19 for the front and 285/35R19 for the rear.

Can I just get these and mount em on my car? Do I need to get new hub, offset and etc? If so which size?

Thanks in advance

I' pretty sure at least the fronts will rub badly.

I have the exact same wheels/tires, and to answer your question, yes they will rub. The recommended sizes are F:245/35/19 and R:275/30/19.

Also, I was wondering, would 275/35/19 rub for the rear?? Please advise.

The wheels (167 M) are OK but the tires must be F 245/35 19" and R 275/30 19".
