Winter wheel question

PIcked up a set of 298M wheels (made for the E70 X5M) for my F15, but now after doing futher research, I'm worried they might not fit. NOtably, the offset is 19 on the wheels, compared to the 37 stock on the F15. The center bore was always 74.1 on both models.
Has anyone tried these?
Any input?

the lower the offset, the more the wheel will stick out when mounted onto the car. X5s have plenty of wheel gap so u shouldnt have to worry about fender rubbing issues. 37-19=18mm difference, meaning the wheels will stick out 18mm more compared to ur stocks. u will be fine, in fact, it means theres more clearance between the inside spokes and the brake calipers.
