All E53 wheels have a slightly smaller diameter wheel hub bore hole size than E70 wheels:
E53 hub bore size is: 72.56. E70 bore is 74.1...

Thus, if you are hot on/intent upon those wheels, any decent machine shop should be able to bore out/machine that bore hole size to 74 mm.

A recent poster reported good results doing the same. Can't find that thread right now. Also, Search Tab will show pages of threads on same topic.
