Will this wheel/tire combo rub?

My car is a 2007 550i Sport.

NOTE - the wheel/tire package was already installed in a non-sport 525i, so the claim is they fit at least on a non-sport. The wheels are Miro 346 (167 replicas). I'm getting a pretty sweet deal on a slightly used set, but if the tire/wheel combo doesn't fit, I'll pass.

Front:
Wheel: 20x9 - ET 20
Tire: 255/35/20

Rear:
Wheel: 20x10 - ET 25
Tire: 295/30/20

Would they fit my car w/o rubbing? My sense is they will rub, but want to hear if anyone has tried this wheel/size combination on a standard sport suspension setup.

So heres the deal, i have 245/35/20 with 20/8.5 and i just barely rub for the front. You only notice with the car a t a stand still turning the wheel, nothing driving The back tire seems a little extreme since im sitting really wide with 20/10 with 275/30/20. So yea youre gonna rub pretty good with that size. Hope that helps
