Can I fit style 95 wheels on a 528 xi ??
I really like the look on the style 95 wheel. I'm not worried about a little stretch on the tire just wanna make sure it's not gonna poke out too much. I'm buying a set of kw v3. Please help me out here guys.

Make sure you check the wheels' offset (ET). The xi wheels typically have a 43mm offset, but the RWD models typically have a 20mm offset.
Edit: I found the 7-Series style 95 wheels on realoem.com. They're 9 x 19 ET 24 and 10 x 19 ET 24.
The E60 M5 came with 8-1/2 x 19 ET 12 (Front) and 9-1/2 x 19 ET 28 (rear) wheels. My gut feel is that you may well run into an offset spec problem.

It might be worth taking a look at this discussion, but I believe the pictured car is a RWD wagon (not an xi):
