Hey all, I'm an idiot when it comes to wheels and tires so I need your expertise.

I have a 2008 528xi, and I'm wondering if I certain set of wheels and tires will fit. I know staggered usually is not ideal for the xi but it has been done. The specs are:

Size: 20x9/10.5
Offset: ET35/42

Tires:
Size: 245/30 and 285/25 R20

Any chance I could get these to go? How off would I be? Thanks guys.

I wouldn't go wider than this, considering most of the measurements you want to achieve:

Front: 20x9 245/30 ET 18
Rear: 20x10 285/25 ET 22

If you go wider than 10 inch in the back you are pushing it and it will most likely rub... You don't want to damage your wheel well, tires, body and suspension components. Not to mention ending up in a ditch.
