Re: New wheels but will they fit
The rears probably will work fine. The fronts "might" have interference with the strut.
I say might because if the wheels were 17" they for sure would be hitting the tie rod and strut. Going to a larger diameter eliminates the tie rod as a problem and the strut moves farther away from the rim lip.

Re: New wheels but will they fit
Hub center bore will be alittle big and wheel will have to center off studs, which aint great, but not bad either.
The F body hub bore is 70.3
That BMW wheel hub bore 74.1
I don't have info on the offset/back spacing
