After researching this subject myself, I have determined that 20x10" ET40 wheels with a 275/40R20 tires are pretty much the maximum that will absolutely fit on the E70 with zero issues. Some people squeeze a 275/45R20 tire on there but it rubs until some of the louvers break off. I'm sure that a 20x11" wheel with a suitable offset could fit but likely a tire that you would fit on there would rub incessantly. 20x10" wheels in the rear work and fill out the well nicely with 15-25mm spacers and the appropriate bolts. I am planning to use four 20x10" ET40 Style 333 wheels and 275/40R20 tires. I am still determining what spacer I will use in the rear.

You may have seen some of these sites or threads below but these are some of the ones I used to help make my decision. You'll see that some people report success and some don't so the best you can do is consider all of the information that you can get.
