If unsure of the BMW oe 19" wheels...just go to one of the online part databases (like www.realoem.com) and input the last 7 digits of your VIN, then go to the wheel diagrams and see what the specs are for the 19" wheels.

Other than the aftermarket front wheel having an offset that is a bit lower than the average 6 series 19" wheels...when you run the specs through the calculator you can see that the wheel doesn't stick out beyond the fender, nor does it interfere with any suspension components.

When all is said and done...there are only a few things that you DON'T want to do and that is have wheels that rub your suspension, or stick out too far from the fender...and you DON'T want tires that are greater than 3% (+/-) the rolling diameter/circumference of the any of the oe BMW recommended tire sizes (it appears you're using ie 19" tire sizes...so that's all good).

If what you've selected falls within those specs...I don't think you should have an issue...the math (the "numbers') will answer those questions.

The only spec that we don't have is the hub size of these aftermarket wheels. Is the hub size 72.56mm (the standard f06/f12/f13 wheel hub size)...or are they larger where you'll need to use hub centric rings to fill the difference?

Thank you for the info.
The ‘19 wheels that I want to use are not OEM and I know that I have to use hubcentric rings (I had these rims on my E90).
The thing that I did not know was the percentage (+/- 3%) of the new tires diameter/circumference that I do not have to exceed.
Thak you again.

Everything sounds/looks good, then. Since you'll be using hub centric rings...I do suggest that if someone other than you is working with your wheels and will be removing/replacing them...ALWAYS reveal that you have hub centric rings mounted.

I say that because sometimes the hub rings will stay on the hub when the wheels are removed...and sometimes they come off with the wheel. If they don't know that the rings are there...they can get damaged or lost which can screw up your remounting of the wheels.

And if by unfortunate circumstance, the rings get damaged anyways (sh!t happens)...if you've told them about the rings, then they are on the hook for replacing them.

I appreciate the help. I know there are 100s of threads on this, so I appreciate you not yelling at me to use the search. I’m trying to get a quick answer. Thanks for your time.
Did you ever figure this out? Having similar issues and trying to find the cause....

Great video! Very helpful. Maybe you can offer some insight on why my front 22's are rubbing on my control arms... I have 22x9 +30 offset (supposedly), 245/30/22 tires. I'm thinking an 8-10mm wheel spacer may fix the issue or I was sold the wrong rim offset by accident? Dont know gonna try and measure it. I see tons of 650i running 22's (jjasonSU) with my tires size with no issues.. either everyone is lying or something is bad wrong with my setup...
