17" Winter alloys

Hi all
I am looking to purchase a set of winter alloys and found a set on 17" same as these https://www.alloyhub.com/shop/bmw/5-...r-alloy-wheel/
They are on 235/55 R17 tyres and have looked at different calculators online but still not sure if they fit (on the front brakes especially). BMW says that they will fit but I assume for OEM alloys for this model not for the ones above which are for an F10 series. Anyone fitted 17's on an Msport F13?

This is easy to find out if BMW wheel style 236 fits your car...just use one of the online part database sites and your VIN.

Click this link, then enter the last 7 digits of your VIN (where it says SEARCH BY VIN)...then click on the WHEEL diagrams. Scroll down to see if wheel style 236 is listed. If it is...then that wheel will fit your car...if it is NOT listed...then it won't fit your car probably due to some option (like larger brakes): https://bimmercat.com/

Using the part database...you'll see that the 11 digit BMW part nbrlisted on the site you linked us to is the SAME for the f10/f11 five series as it is for the F60/F12/F13 six series...and the wheel offset and dimensions are also the same...meaning they are the SAME wheel.
