Welcome to the forum. :) Clearly they will fit. I expect the ever helpful Mr T will be along at some point, to inform whether they require spacers.

Can't quite get it together. when I look at: willtheyfit.com they say that the wheels will stick out 30mm more than original. then the wheels come outside the body. But in the picture it looks good.

I think the car in the picture is a Z4MC and the offset you quoted are close to what an M takes. For a non-M it will probably stick out too much unfortunately :(

Brakes don’t look right for an M, and who would remove the M badges from the sides?

Not an ///MC. Bumper, bonnet. None of it from the ///M. :wink:

Yes guys, I stant corrected. I am guessing ET29 rear is no different to the OEM ET50 with 20mm spacers, regardless of the 9J width as long as it keeps a 255 tyre. The front is quite aggressive though, it is also like having a 20mm spacer which I do not think people usually do on front, especially on 235 tyre?
