For show the best size tires for 20" wheels are 245/30/20 and 285/25/20. Just come in to Sonic and discuss it with Darwin.

20" FTW...Seriously, it's perfect. Don't go 21's. I can't imagine my iForged being any bigger. My tires sizes are listed in my sig and look perfect on the car, especially with the H&R drop. I'm so glad that I didn't go with meatier tires (say 35 profile front 30 rear)

you could even run 22s on your e60 but roll the fenders and might have to do some more around them to fit them right ive seen them done......you just have to be carefull on steep driveways or you will bust your fenders
