Default 20 inch F10 wheels - BMW 312 style on an E60? anyone done this? seen i

I have been looking at the new F10 BMW wheels. I loike the 312 wheels the best. I am wondering if they would fit OK on an E60.

As far as I know the wheel stats for the F10 are?.

Front wheels with 20x8.5ET33 #312 style for F10 with 245/35R20 95W tyres

Rear wheels with 20x9ET44 312 style for F10 with 275/30R20 97W tyres

Just wondering if the offsets and wheel sizes will be ok for an E60.

I love these wheels but?.

My main choice would be 172M Wheels though which I know will fit?.!! They are only 19 inch

Anyone out there done this or know if I would need spacers to put these 20 inch 312 wheels on an E60 or if there would be any wheel rubbing problems?

My current E60 has 245/40/18 all round standard 135 M wheels as it is a 530i M sport

Those wheel sizes are okay; the offsets would be good on X-drive/Xi E60, but not on the RWD ("i") versions. You can, of course, resort to using spacers, but you'll need at least 15mm's up front and probably 20mm ones in the back.

I have just done it with spacers and I'm sorry to tell you that you should expect a lot of wheel rubbing. Tyres of a lower profile will be needed on the front.
