I have some nice VMR V710 that I had from my BMW Z4.

Would you guys recommend I put them on my 2006 530i with sport e60?? Will they fit with spacers?

The wheels I have are
Front 19 x 8.5 offset (et) 35
Rear 19 x 9.5 offset (et) 45

The tires need to be changed so I'm open to tire sizes.

Or

Do I sell the wheels and get new ones again (One wheel has a gash on the side, otherwise mint)

Thanks.

20mm spacers in front and rear. If you end up goinf this route, I recommend spacers that are bolted in the axle and the wheel is attached into the spacer with another bolts.

Or sell them to a forum member with xi / awd and buy a set with the proper offset w/o needing spacers.

Are you sure about the spacer my tire guy said 10 and 15?

How do you come up with the optimal spacer size?

Thanks,

correction he meant 20 mm in the back and 15 mm in the front,

and you recommend hub centric ones correct?

Great info on these sites to figure it all out!

Well I have run 8.5 ET14 in front without any problems (with standard front fenders, now I have wider M5 fenders). 8.5x19 ET35 with a 20mm spacer is ET15 which is almost the same, even 1mm more in lol!
Then, at the rear I've had a 8.5x19 ET14 with a 12mm spacer --> ET2. Comparing that to 9.5x19 ET45 with a 20mm spacer tells us that your wheel would still sit 10mm more in.
