Will 20 x 9.5, 25 mm (F) 20 x 10.0, 55 mm (R) wheels fit on a stock E63S?
2014 stock suspension E63 S with CCB:
Wheels:
Diameters +1.0", aspect ratios -5%
20 x 9.5 front wheels, 25 mm offset (-12 mm offset, + 0.5" width)
20 x 10.0 rear wheels, 55 mm offset (+3 mm offset, + 0.5" width)
Tires would be:
(front) 255/30R20
(rear) 295/25R20 (+10 mm section width)
Thanks!

Bump.
So, the fronts would stick out an additional 12 mm? Is this a real issue with respect to fender rubbing and/or aesthetics?
The rears would be 8 mm further in with respect to a CLS rear 10.0" wide wheel. I am guessing worst case a 5 mm spacer would take care of that, unless the 10 mm wider section is an additional issue.

The fronts will actually stick out by approximately 18mm compared to stock, while the rears 8mm.
The rear not really an issue. You could run a 10mm spacer which will put them out to ET45. This makes them pretty much flush with the fenders.
Now the front, not necessarily an issue rather that the rim will stick out past the fender. May look odd in stock suspension. Probably be out by approximately 10mm. Don’t think you’ll rub but couldn’t say for certain under full compression with wheel turned (say under hard turning).

Thank you! I might pass on these wheels then, due to the odd front situation.
I am guessing you are getting +18 mm total from +12 mm offset and the +0.5" (12.7 mm/2) wheel width?

I ran a 10" ET45 rear with 295/25R20 and was very flush, with a front 9" ET38 with 265/30R20 which fit surprisingly well. I really liked these and didn't give them enough ride time (Michelin discontinued the 295 PSS tire in the spring but now have replaced with the P4S).
I think the ideal specs would be 20x9" ET35 and 20x10" ET45 with 265/30R20 or 255/30R20 and 295/25R20
