Can anyone confirm these sizes are ok?:

Front = 245/19/30
Back = 275/19/35

12mm spacer in backs should be good for m5 offset?

These are the correct sizes for M166's on a NON M5 E60

245/35-19 front
275/30-19 rear

You could even go 285/30-19 rears but this would require rolling your rear fenders or it will rub.

M6 rear offset is ET17. 12mm spacer on the M5 offset(ET28) will put you at ET16 offset. Perfect.
