Arrow Can these 17" rims fit on my 550?

I have a set of 17x7" Borbet LV5 rims with Blizzak tires that I used for my previous Z4M Coupe and 335i for the winter. Would it be possible to get these to fit on my current 550i with some kind of an adapter or spacer?

17x7" (all four wheels)
Offset +35mm
Bolt pattern: 5-120
Backspacing: 5.35"

ET45 is high, the OEM wheels are ET30. This means the ET45 wheels sits 15mm further in and the brake caliper might hit the spoke.
I'd get a lower offset wheel.
