BMW e53 on 295/40R20 and 20x11 Style 214 - Squared

So I picked up 2 sets of style 214s and a nice used set of Michelin Latitude Tour tires. I went back and forth on what to go with and finally decided this is best for me. I would have ideally chosen a 285/40 by I refuse to run Runflats if possible to avoid. I know the tires are 0.3" taller than stock but it seemed to be a good compromise for running a squared setup. My question is, has anyone done this setup on the e53?

I did a wheel test fit and it actually bolts up without rubbing the strut. I think a 315 would barely rub the strut depending on tire brand.

If not I guess this will be the thread where someone tries. I also bought a tire changer (tired of paying shops to change my tires). It arrives tomorrow.

I'll attach some teaser photos. BTW, new to this forum, but not new to BMWs. Looking forward to all comments!
