Back to the front E60 M5 brakes for a second . . . I see that the E60 M5 has a hub diameter of 79mm, while our F10s have a 75mm hub diameter. I worry this is a deal breaker for using the E60 M5 setup. With the X5M setup that Darkknight did, that rotor is massive (at 395mm), but it still has the same hub diameter of 75mm. I'd love to hear if someone has used the E60 M5 rotors on the front of an F10.
Regarding the rear 550i setup, I thought the US and Europe specs were the same. I just pulled up both versions on RealOEM and confirmed this is the case; they both use the same part numbers for the rear. Here is what you need for the 550i rear brakes:
Rear Rotor (345x24)- 34216775289
Rear Caliper- 34216793047 and 34216793048
Rear Caliper Carrier- 34216793053 and 34216793054
Rear Pads- 34216775346
