No problem in the rear, but I'm not sure about the front.

I'm running 18X9 et35 and 18X9 et39 in the front and have no rubbing issues with 265s. The only issue with you would be going too tall, I think.

yes, 265s in the front. UUUUGGGGG, you get me all upset to think an E55 may ride on skinnier than stock tires. Hehe, I hate 20s as is but skinny tires is just a major hate for me. Stick with 245s or even 255s and you should be fine. Remember that it is the profile that matters more than width. Stay within a few percentages of OEM. Actually, in the front do not exceed the OEM anymore than you have to. These cars come with taller tires up front than the rear.
