Anyone knows if f01 (new 7 series) wheels be compatible with e60 non m? I did a search and found that bolt pattern is the same, and center bore is the same, but offset is higher on rears, will putting spacers fix this? has anyone has done this before?

That's a big range of offset. You don't have the exact offset and width? That's what we'll need to know.

No I'm not saying they will fit. We need the exact offset and exact width to be able to tell you if they'll fit. When you say

Front: 15-25mm
Rear: 32-40mm

That's a range of 11mm in the front and 9mm in the rear which is HUGE. That's why I am asking you for the exact offset and width.

I can tell you with those widths you'll most likely rub. 9" is about as wide as you can go in the front.

You'll probably need to pull the fenders instead of just rolling the fenders. Not worth it in my opinion just get something that fits properly instead of devaluing your car with fender pulling.
