Since nobody on this forum can reply since car is so new, I just tried some 20" Bryton's on Saturaday (so I can roll it out on Saturaday night without looking like a driver) and it fits perfect with no rubbing. The ride is still too soft for my taste though. I already took the 20" off and decided to go for 22" since 20" look a bit small for my taste. Also I still haven't figured out how I'm going to lower the car since my car have the air suspension. With the 20" I had... my car look like a off-roader sitting so high.... I can finally confirm that the correct wheel size is PCD120. The wheel size I put on was

Front 20X9.5 offset 38 (5mm spacer) Tire size 245/40/20 Correct wheels should be about 33 offset
Rear 20X10.5 offset 25 (no spacer). Tire size 275/35/20

New lug nuts are neccessary to install these rims. Also need new center rings since these rims are made for the BMW.

It is possible that this set would fit, can't be 100% sure since rim design also plays a factor. But you still would need spacers, special lug nuts, and hubcentric rings. When I put on my set, there is a machine shop down the block, I just put it on so I can have a set to play with before my 22" is done. I still would recommand you getting a custom forged set made for your car.

P.S. I'm putting on another set of 20" this week. Specs are:
Front 20X9J Offset 30 245/30/20
Front 20X10J Offset 23 275/35/20

Those front wheels are actually a little more inboard than the OE wheels.
This means the front wheels and/or tires will probably rub the front sway bar when turned at full-lock. Just a heads-up!

We've delivered about a dozen sets of wheels for the new LS so far; I'm trying to get our distributors to get some pictures. Testing has revealed that our
19/20x8.5 front & rear and
19/20x8.5 front & 19/20x10 rear set-ups work great and do not create any issues with park assist, traction control, cruise control, or ABS on both long and short wheelbase cars. So far, all of these sets have been sold to Lexus dealers!

The center ring for the Lexus is 60.1mm while the X5 have a center ring of 72.6mm, therefore, please make sure that you're getting a 60.1mm center ring with bolt patter 5x120 if you are planning to custom order your wheels from CL vendors. Almost all the custom forging wheel company can make this wheel easily. D2 autosport knows the correct fitment since he already did a couple sets of custom wheels. I believe he has Zone and Maya wheels that fits perfect.

I am curious what is the wheel width, offset, and size of the hubcentric ring for these wheels?
