Would xi style 124 wheels with an offset of 43 mm fit a non-xi 530i?

I don't think so. In my case I bought winter rims for my 530xd, and the offset was different, so that it wouldn't even fit.

In this case I think it will fit, but It will get outside the limited line (don't know exactly how this calls in English).

Anybody care to guess whether these wheels are from a xi, or i. I don't have the actual part number or offset.

They will if you put 20mm spacers with them. But you should be able to get standard 124 wheels on the forum. I'm sure plenty of 545/550 sport owners would sell you there's.

Plus, the xi 124's don't have a deep concave look to them due to the highoffset.

You need to get the part number or find out for sure. You can't guess from this picture.

They look like xi wheels, you can notice the curvature of the spokes, they look flat, from the edge of the rim to the center, a non xi will have more curvature due to the offset difference.
