Sounds like a perfect solution.

Your task is to now find what offset and width those wheels are available in, and have someone like @qube advise you on the best choice for your car.

cheers bro
all good if I give you a call at some stage? 

Yea mate, anytime ///before 7pm haha

In regards to your wheels, try see if anyone has some 10mm or 15mm spacers you could borrow, these do not require  a cert. If they fit better, you can purchase a set, preferable a reputable set like Torque. Im in the process of getting one of my cars certed for adjustables and spacers, spacers that are 20mm and higher, will require a cert, possibly the 15mm too, but you'd need to check.

Having owned several E39s, i have found that the offset of 20 - 10 has been best for fitment and looks, but for your dilemma, spacers may be the fastest and cheapest route. The spacers will move your offset from 35 - 25 / 20 depending on what you get

do you have any spacers I could try bro? 
just to see how they look/fit
also do you have a shop or just a vet?

Cheers
