you have to get the replicas, the OEM ones for 7 series won't fit onto your car

spacers will make it worse. The offset is too low for E36.

I am running 225 40 18's and I get a little rub over big bumps. Then again, my car is pretty low right now.

depends how much to shave, and then you might have problems with the spokes hitting the calipers.
