I'd be interested in seeing a picture of the wheels on the car if/when you decide to do it.

2007 ///M Coupé  [10.00]
those wheels will fit the rear of an ///m only. they will not fit any part of a non-///m. the offsets are way too aggressive...

front = 8.5 et14
rear = 9.0 et14

Spacers would only make it worse. General speaking, BMW wheels get more aggressive as you move up in chassis, ie 5 series is more aggressive than 3, 3 is more aggressive than 1-er's. The Z4 non-M is between a 1 and 3, or the same as the previous generation 3 (e46). The Z4 M have offsets similar to the current 3 series (e90). So your friend's 6 series is way too aggressive.

Yes to the point you will rub big time.

They would fit, I had AC Schnitzer for E60 that is the same offset as the 6 series , I had an Non M z4 with 19 x8.5 front Et 15 and 19 x 9.5 Et 15 without any issues at all..

You have to put tires in the front 235/35/19 and in the rear 245/35/19

The fitment looks good kind flush but without much rubbing..

Try the rims with the correct tire

There's nothing "correct" about a 245/35.

Sacrificing tire size/fitment isn't something I'd do just to get wheels to fit. 245's are way too narrow for a 9.5, not to mention the low really low offset my affect handling because it's not nearly as centered on the hub as the stock offset.
