Who is running 9.5 square set wheels?
 
How hard is it to make these work for the fronts? What offsets? Thanks!

I think 9.5 et10 would work. At least in my M5 9.5x20 et10 is pretty much tucked in so I believe it would work with standard fenders as well.

A little more info like which E60 do you have would help.

08 535xi. Thanks! Forgot to mention that!

In that case it wouldn't work what I said.

You would have to do some measuring to see if possible. Most likely it won't since a 9.5" wheel up front is a pretty wide wheel for a non-M E60. I currently run a 9" wheel up front and it barely fits.

What size are you running in the rear? Are you running staggered? Or square?

You think if I switch to RWD Front Brakes it would Fit then?

Thanks!

My ride is 530Xi with KWv3 suspension
Front: 19x8.5 Et35 245/35/19 fit just right
Rear: 19x9.5 Et33 275/30/19 were rubbing a bit, then I have the rear fenders rolled, now all good

it should work. you just have to get higher offsets and not lower too much or run stretched tires to prevent rubbing.

heres a guy with 19x9 et24 up front and it looks fine

Yes your setup will barely clear the inner wheel if your on stock suspension. Also being that the OP has an XI his et's are already high but his inner wheel will hit the shock body before it is in far enough to clear the fender.

OP your brakes have no bearing on fitment. It's best to run a 9" square setup or do a staggered setup which is possible on a XI. You just need to make sure both wheels are the same overall height, iirc within a 3% range. Of course closer the better.
