LOL! That's because you picked the ONLY two vehicles BMW had made with 74.1mm hub bores - the E70/71 (non-M) and the E39 M5.

As far as E70 wheels fitting the F15, it depends on the hub bore of the F15, (it appears to me to be 74.1 again based on wheels offered above which are 74.1) and the offsets - the F15 could easily required different backspacing than the E70 did, but it's also possible it will not.

I'd suggest someone tries some test fitting and post up the results. If anyone in the Seattle area has an F15 and wants to see what some 333s would look like on there, I'm more than happy to do a test fit.
