Max rim width + offset and tire size for the E60?

Anyone know this info?

Basically the rim width and offset range.

I know M5 is 9 wide front in single digits offsets and as large as 11 wide rear in low double digit offsets. How about standard 5 series?

And what tire sizes cause rubbing?

Thx in advance.

Hello, maybe I can help.
I have a 2004 530 I with after market Wheels. My setup is
20 x 8.5 in the front and
20 x 10 in the rear. I have 245/35/20 in the front and 275/35/20 in the rear. Reason why I chose these sizes are because they fill my fender Wells perfect with no scrubbing. In my opinion anything smaller would look funny. In regards to offset, I don't really remember the exact numbers but I purchased tsw wheels from discount tire. They should be able to help u. Good luck. If you need pics of how wheels and tires look I will be glad to email you some.
I recommended tsw wheels and hankook tires. I love my setup.

Happy hunting

Sorry, I thought all the E60 M5 OEM Wheels were the same size no matter what the style/type was.
